Pay Policies

This section of the software allows you to review and edit the company policies that your employees are assigned to.

If you would like to filter the list of available employees by the department that they are assigned to, select the desired department from the Department drop-down menu. Select "All Employees" if you do not wish to filter the list of available employees.

Select the employee that you wish to view from the Employee drop-down menu at the top of the screen.

Note:
This screen displays the company policies that have been set up within the TimeForce system. Before you will be able to assign your employees to company policies you must first create the policies that your company uses. Company policies are created from the Policies section of the main Admin tab.

Each company policy that is set up within the TimeForce system is listed under its subsequent header. Policies that the employee is currently assigned to are specified with a check mark. Add or remove check marks from the displayed policies as desired.

The Pay Policies section, located in the upper right-hand corner of the screen.

  • The Pay Period setting contains each Pay Period that has been set up in the system. Make the desired selection from the drop-down menu.
  • Select the Holiday List that the employee is to be assigned to from the drop-down menu. Enter the number of hours to be awarded to the employee on days specified as a holiday in the Holiday Hours field.
  • The Paid Lunches option allows you to select whether you would like an employee to be paid for their lunch break (depending on the setup of the schedule that the employee is assigned to work).
  • The Auto Gen Hours setting automatically generates hours for this employee based on the Schedule Rule that they are assigned to. See Auto Gen Hours for detailed instructions on setting up and using this option.

  • When unscheduled employees work a shift that crosses midnight, the Unscheduled Max Break Span allows you to specify that the punches falling after midnight are to be considered as hours for the shift that began the previous day. This setting represents the duration between an "In" punch and a prior "Out" punch that the system will us in absence of a shift.
    Note: This option must be enabled from the System Setup section of the program.

  • When using Premium Pay policies, click on the Premium Pay Coverages link located under the Helpful Hints section of the screen to view the hours of coverage for the premium policies assigned to this employee. This can be helpful when using multiple Premium Pay polices, by allowing you to view overlapping hours and possible "holes" in  premium hours.
