What work schedules are available?

Create work schedules with or without expected hours and for minijob workers

This article is for: Admin, Account owner

Work schedules are the foundation for accurate time tracking. They define on which days and for how long a user works, when core working hours apply, and during which periods overtime is possible.

Expected hours

The Expected hours work schedule defines how many hours a user should work in a set period and how those hours are distributed across the week. It serves as the basis for time tracking, overtime calculation, and compliance with rest periods and maximum working hours.

  • Fixed working hours: Working hours are clearly defined, with a daily target that does not change from week to week.
  • Core working hours: Define time periods during which users must be present.
  • Premium pay: Based on the expected hours, premium pay for overtime, night work, and weekend or public holiday work can be calculated automatically.

  • No fixed working days: Working hours are scheduled flexibly.
  • Weekly or monthly hours: Expected hours can be distributed on a weekly or monthly basis.
  • Suitable for part-time work: Total hours and income limits can be maintained in accordance with legal requirements.

No expected hours

The No expected hours work schedule is a flexible model without a fixed number of hours per day or week. Working time is recorded as a working hours balance. This model is suitable for activities where working hours are difficult to plan or variable.

  • No fixed working days or expected hours: Users organise their working hours individually.
  • Working hours balance: Working time is recorded as a balance.
