Overtime Policy

To allow employees to request overtime, the admin needs to create an overtime policy in the system and assign employees to it.

This article will guide you on how to add an overtime policy and assign employees to it.

To do so, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the Settings page > Attendance > Attendance policies

2. In the Overtime tab click the New Overtime Policy button

3. Define the new policy by providing the following settings

• Policy name (i.e., Default, department to which it applies, etc.).
• The calculation method ( Single 1.5x), Double 2x, or Custom for this policy.
• The Time off in lieu policy (refer to this article for more details).

 

• Set a maximum limit for the number of overtime hours requested by employees (daily and/or monthly).

• Select if employees should fulfil certain terms before submitting requests

• Select the employees for this policy by choosing one of the following options:
  • All employees: This option applies the policy to all employees.
  • Group: This option allows you to apply the policy to a specific group of employees based on the settings of the previous policy selected, such as location or departments.
  • Selected employees: This option enables you to choose specific employees from the available employees list in the system.

Note:

The admin can create multiple policies on the system and assign employees to them using the same steps.

4. Admins can edit or delete existing policies from the same page.
