Overtime in CrewCenter

Overview

Roles: Admin, Supervisor, Employee | Interface: Web, Mobile

Overtime helps you track the difference between an employee’s expected working hours and the hours they actually record, including certain absences and manual corrections. This article explains how Overtime  is calculated, where to view it on Web and Mobile and how Admins can adjust it when needed.

Overtime calculation (overtime rules)

Overtime  is calculated daily by comparing the expected work hours with the recorded work hours and then summarized for the selected date range. Expected work hours are those entered through the Working Schedule, which can only be managed by the Administrator.

Overtime  for a day uses the logic:

Total Work Hours + Total Absence Hours (the time when an employee is not at work during their scheduled hours including sick leave, planned holiday leave, trainings) - Expected Work Hours - Total Absence Hours Affecting Overtime + Manual corrections

How to Check Employee Overtime

Roles: Admin, Supervisor | Interface: Web

Admins can view Overtime for employees in the Employee Dashboard. Supervisors can view Overtime for their crew.

 

Follow these steps to view overtime details for an employee:

1. Open the Employee Dashboard from the left-hand menu.
2. Search for the employee or select them directly from the list.
3. Choose the desired date range for your review.
4. Navigate to the Overtime section to view the relevant data.

 

In the Overtime section, you will find:

• Employee Name – a list of all employees included in the report.
• Until XX/XX/XXXX – a summary of the total overtime hours accumulated up to the selected date.
• Changes - result of corrections happened between  "as of <date>" and "until <date>" (set new balance or Add/Subtract time) by the Admin 
• As of XX/XX/XXXX - the balance as of selected date

• Current balance - the total overtime from the current year up to (and including) the previous day, regardless of the selected time frame. Today is not included.

Important: 

• The current balance calculation does not include today's data.
• Negative values are highlighted in red for better visibility.
• Supervisors can view overtime and history for their crew, but they cannot manage (change) overtime  balances.

• The column data reflects the selected time range
