How do I set overtime and break rules?

In Settings, under Pay and payroll, set when overtime starts, what it pays, which breaks are paid, and a break reminder.

Your pay rules decide how Payroll adds up hours. They are your settings, not legal advice: check your local rules with your accountant or adviser.

Open Settings and go to Pay and payroll.
Set how often you pay and the day your workweek starts.
Turn on Count overtime and set the hours in a week, and if you like in a day, after which overtime starts.
Set what overtime pays, for example 1.5 for time and a half.
Set which breaks count as paid work time, and when a break reminder is due.

Tip

Suggested values fills in common starting points. They are not the law where you are.

Note

Breaks shorter than the paid-break limit count as work time. Shifts without the break they needed get a note in Payroll.
