Time policy | Compliance rules

Updated this week

With compliance rules within an time policy, you set limits on the maximum working time and minimum rest periods that can be recorded. This helps your teams work according to statutory and/or internal rules around working hours and rest. When a colleague submits a time entry that exceeds one of the configured rules, a warning appears.

Setting up compliance rules

To apply compliance rules within an time policy, go to the relevant policy or create a new one. Then scroll to the compliance rules section and switch it on (green) to activate this feature. After that, you can add one or more rules based on the following types:

  • Not allowed to work
    Set on which days and at what times working isn’t allowed.

  • Minimum break time
    Set how much mandatory break employees must take after a certain amount of working time.

  • Mandatory presence during core hours
    Specify the hours during which employees must be present.

  • Maximum working time
    Set a limit for the maximum number of working hours allowed per day.

Tip: If a time entry breaks a compliance rule, we show a warning icon in the overviews so team leads can easily spot and review it.
