Employment Rules

2 min read

Employment Rules are crucial for creating schedules that comply with labor regulations. These rules need to be defined and assigned to employees.

Employment rules are established at the company level and, once added by the global admin, are accessible to all system users in a read-only format.

Accessing employment rules:

Click on “Employment rules” in the menu. This will lead you to a page displaying a list of employment rules.

The Employment Rule’s grid supports filtering, sorting, and pagination, as described in the “Data Management in Grids” section.

Bulk Assignment:

Once employees are added to the system, all users can set their employment rules, per employee or in bulk. When clicking on a specific rule and choosing “Assign Employee,” a list of employees will appear, grouped by their employment rules. In this form, users can assign an employment rule to employees in bulk.

Managing Employment Rules

Only Global admin has the authority to manage employment rules.

Adding a Rule:

Click “Add” to open a pop-up form.Entering a rule name is mandatory. You can also add a small description.

In the “Employment Rule” section, you can fill in the following fields (all optional unless otherwise specified):

  • Minimum working time: Specify the minimum working time per Shift, Day, Week, or Month.
  • Maximum working time: Specify the maximum working time per Shift, Day, Week, or Month.
  • Minimum rest time between non-consecutive shifts: Set the minimum required rest time.
  • Maximum allowed consecutive work: Specify the maximum number of consecutive Shifts (default value is 1, meaning consecutive shifts are not allowed) and the maximum number of consecutive Days.
  • Maximum number of working days: Specify the maximum number of working days per Week.
  • Minimum number of working days: Specify the minimum number of working days per Week.

Important Note: Fill only the fields that pertain to the restrictions of the rule you want to create, leaving blank any that do not apply.

If there are no restrictions at all, create an empty rule without any entries to assign it to employees.

Editing Rules:

To edit a selected employment rule, double-click on it and click on the “Edit” button.

Deleting Rules:

To delete a selected rule, click “Delete.”
