Weekly/Bi-weekly Overtime Follow
With this department level rule enabled, timecard calculations will reflect weekly, or bi-weekly overtime beginning at the user-defined threshold, such as after 40 hours worked in a week.
Notes:
- Overtime calculations must be configured per each department, this gives you the flexibility of customizing overtime rules for each department based on your company needs.
- Overtime calculations must be enabled in order for any overtime to be calculated on an employee's timecard.
- In order for the additional overtime options to be displayed, such as Daily Overtime, and Double Time (OT2), weekly overtime and the corresponding threshold must first be enabled and defined.
- If a semi-monthly, or monthly pay period is selected:
- A semi-monthly pay period will conclude on fixed calendar dates for each pay cycle.
- The 7 day work week as defined by the Fair Labor Standards Act, will conclude on different calendar dates every 7 days.
- This can sometimes result in an overtime balance carrying over into the next pay period. While this can be a bit tricky of a concept, it is correct. However, we strongly recommend you perform your due diligence to ensure compliance in your municipality or industry.
