2DESIGNATION FOR OUTSTANDING WAGE PAYMENTS
Chapter 7 of Title 34 of the Official Code of Georgia, Annotated, as amended, provides for the payment of a
deceased employee's outstanding wagers or other moneys eitherto a designated beneficiary or to a surviving
spouse. In the absence of a surviving spouse, outstanding wages would then be paid to the employee's surviving
minor child or children.
The following information is presented to help you decide and properly designate the recipient of any outstanding
wages of yours.
1 - Designating a Beneficiary
a Where a beneficiary is designated, he/she will be the primary recipient of outstanding wages over any
other individual.
b. A beneficiary may be an organization or an individual. An individual designated as a beneficiary may or
may not be related to you.
c. Where the designated beneficiary is under a legal incapacity that will act to prevent the beneficiary from
directly receiving the outstanding wages, please indicate in the appropriate area, the name and address of
the duly qualified guardian of the beneficiary.
d. For DHS record-keeping purposes, where a beneficiary has been designated but you also have a wife and
a minor child or children, please give the requested information in the appropriate spaces in section 2.
NOTE: If at the time of your death the designated beneficiary cannot receive your outstanding wages,
these wages will then pass to your surviving spouse, and in the absence of a surviving spouse, to a
minor child or children.
2 - Designating a Surviving Spouse or Surviving Minor Children
a. The law provides that if at the time of your death you have outstanding wages and you have not designated a
beneficiary of your wages, any outstanding wages must first go to your surviving spouse. In the absence of
a surviving spouse at the time of your death, your wages will pass to your surviving minor child or children.
A minor child is age 18 years or under.
b. If your minor child (or children) has a duly qualified guardian (other than yourself), please indicate in the
appropriate area, the name and address of the individual.
In compliance with the above referenced law, you are requested to complete the DESIGNATION FOR
OUTSTANDING WAGES form on the reverse side of this sheet and submit it as soon as possible to your
supervisor. The form will be forwarded through appropriate channels for inclusion in your official DHS personnel
file. Please be aware that beneficiary designations listed in section 1 will supersede any previous
beneficiary designations which you have made.
Any sums payable under this Code Section may be paid pursuant to the designation made by the employee to a
beneficiary, or to the employee's spouse, or to the employee's minor child or children.
It is the responsibility of
the employee to furnish and keep any such information and designation current.
***********************************************************************************************************************
WHEN CLAIMING OUTSTANDING WAGES, it is the responsibility of the individual designated to receive any
outstanding wages to present to the Personnel Manager a copy of the death certificate of the deceased employee.
