Employment terms
Employment terms are legal contracts between employees and employers that establish the conditions of employment before the employee begins work. When a number of employees have schedules that are determined by a legal contract, create a group and define the group as a contract group schedule.
In Scheduling, the group row for a contract group shows the working hours (typically the hours that are specified in the employee’s contract).
When employees are scheduled to work hours that are different from the contracted hours, the pay rules that are defined for those employees determine their pay. For example:
- An employee can earn premium pay for working hours that are not in the contract.
- An employee who takes a day off can be paid for only the portion of the day that is covered by the contract, rather than for the entire day.
Use the By Group tab or the By Employment tab in Scheduler to edit the group row.
You cannot save versions of employment terms that have overlapping dates. Adjust either the start date of the first version or the end date of the second version to eliminate the overlapping dates before saving the versions.
You can have time gaps between versions of employment terms.
