What is multi-level overtime?

Multi-level overtime allows you to specify a second level of overtime.

You can set these levels for the entire organisation or per employee.

This also makes it possible to associate hourly rates and multipliers to time banks specific to this second level (ex. £20/h - Level 1, £30/h - Level 2)


How to set multi-level overtime?

1) For the entire organisation

  1. Click on the ''Settings'' tab;

  2. Click on ''General'';

  3. Go under the ''Overtime'' section and click on ''Add level''.


Then determine the overtime hours you want to use for level 2.


2) In the employee's profile

You can also enter the overtime hours unique to each employee if this applies to your organisation.

  1. Click on the ''HR'' tab of the main menu;

  2. Click on ''Employees'' then select the desired employee from the list of users;

  3. Click on ''Settings'';

  4. Enable the ''Override the organisation's overtime settings'' toggle;

  5. Enter the overtime hours that apply to this particular employee.


Associate hourly rates with each level of overtime


It is possible to manage employee hourly rates in Rotas and Workforce Management, which can help you with budget management. You can indicate these rates for different positions, but also for different levels of overtime.

1) In the employee's profile

You can associate hourly rates with each level of overtime by going to the employee's profile under ''Roles and positions''


2) When creating a new employee

You can also associate hourly rates to each level of overtime once you've added new employees


How to visualise multi-level overtime in the schedule?

In the schedule, simply drag your cursor over the hour counter located under the employee's name to view the details of regular hours and overtime for each level.
