Overtime Progression (Calculation Rule)

The most common types of overtime are Daily and Weekly. These two types are setup here along with Early In and Late Out (before and after schedule).

The first tab is Early In Late Out. The purpose of this type of overtime is to pay premium time for any hours before or after an employee's scheduled hours. You can set this to include all hours outside the schedule or those that are early or late by more than a certain number of minutes such as 300. In the example below, any time prior to the start time by more than 15 minutes will be paid with the Earning Code of OT and any hours after the employee's scheduled out time will also be paid with the earning Code of OT.

Daily Overtime can be set for each individual day instead of the daily overtime rule applying to all days equally. The advantage of this is that some companies do not necessarily work the same number of hours each day. For example, a company can schedule employees for 9 hours a day Monday through Thursday and 4 hours on Friday. On the screen below you can set the daily overtime to 9 for Monday through Thursday and 4 on Friday. In this example however, the Daily Overtime is set to Over 8 hours per day.

  • All Day- If Daily Overtime is the same everyday then just select All Day. If not, then select the day you want to set up
  • Levels- Select the level of overtime. Typically, Overtime (time and a half) is level 1 and Doubletime is level 2. However, you can define your levels to meet your policies.
  • After- Enter the number of hours an employee must work to qualify for Daily Overtime
  • Earning Code- From the drop-down window select the Earning Code to be paid.
  • Exclude Earning Codes for Daily Overtime- Select all Earning Codes that will not count towards Daily Overtime

The most common type of overtime is Weekly or Period. Typically, companies pay overtime over 40 hours a week but in the healthcare industry over 80 hours every two weeks is permitted. The example below is set to Weekly over 40 Hours. You can also set up a Level 2 to pay another Earning Code after a higher number of hours such as 60.

  • Starting Day- Select the day of the week to start a new overtime period
  • When to Reset- Select the time period for the overtime (example- Weekly, Bi-Weekly, etc.)
  • Hours/After- Enter the number of hours an employee must work to qualify for Period Overtime. If, as mentioned above, another Earning Code is paid after a higher number of hours the also fill in the second line 
  • Earning Code/Progress To- From the drop-down list select the Earning Code to be paid
  • Exclude Earning Codes for Period Overtime- Select all Earning Codes that will not count towards Daily Overtime
