Monthly Overtime in Work Agreement

This guide explains how to configure overtime calculated at the monthly level in a work agreement.

The system calculates the actual number of hours worked, subtracts the standard hours, and calculates overtime according to your configuration. Note: the system rounds the result up.

The formula is: (actual hours + paid absences) - standard hours - breaks = overtime. You can then define tiered pay rates for the overtime hours, for example the first 2 hours at 125% and all remaining hours at 150%.

  1. Go to Settings, then Work Agreements, and select the work agreement you want this option applied to.
  2. Scroll down and open the "Monthly overtime" tab.
Contract edit screen with the Overtime tab

Example

  • Actual hours: 118
  • "Vacation" time off: 8 hours
  • Employee's standard hours: 105
  • Break: 6.5 hours

118 + 8 - 105 - 6.5 = 15

Based on the employee's report and the work agreement setting shown in this guide, the employee receives 2 hours at 125% and 13 hours at 150%, since the first two hours were set to 125% and the rest to 150%.
