Pacific Timesheet Announces Shift Differential Enhancements

Additional more configurable support for shift differential regular and overtime rules.

Las Vegas, NV — February 10, 2010 — Pacific Timesheet has announced significant enhancements to its time and attendance support for shift differential regular time, shift differential overtime and shift differential double time rules.

Many union contracts and more complicated work rules require, in addition to shift differential rates or payment amounts, that workers are paid certain separate regular, overtime or double time rates for shift work. In addition, shift differential rules can require configurable definitions of which shift hours are included in these calculations, such as starting before a shift, during a shift, or the entire shift. Pacific Timesheet Time and Attendance software handles this support while providing seamless integration with more than 250 payrolls, accounting and ERP systems. Pacific Timesheet Time and Attendance software also supports an unlimited number complex shifts for any day, combinations or days and hours.

Jim Dickerson, VP of Operation stated, "Many of our customers require flexibility in shift differential software to support highly complex work and pay rules. Pacific Timesheet's highly configurable shift differential support allows for multiple shift rules, shift premiums and shift schedules."

Pacific Timesheet Time and Attendance software allows customers to track time and attendance and time off by job. With a variety of rules exceptions, such as including holidays in overtime calculations, for support for meal penalties and split shift differentials, Pacific Timesheet Time and Attendance software allow employers to track any kind of work rules and policies. Dickerson continued, "Pacific Timesheet's shift differential support provides the same ease of use and administration as our other enterprise class features. As well, our customers continue to work closely with us on our product road map to ensure the product continues to meet increasingly complex labor rules while retaining its core flexibility."

Pacific Timesheet Announces California Labor Rules Enhancements

Las Vegas, NV — January 25, 2010 — Pacific Timesheet has announced that it has significantly enhanced its support for California labor rules such as meal penalty rules and split shift premium rules.

The state of California requires that certain classified non-exempt or hourly employees are paid a meal penalty equal to one regular hour of pay if they miss a meal after more than five hours of continuous work. In addition, California requires employers to pay non-exempt or hourly employees a premium if the time that lapses between shifts is more than one hour.

Jim Dickerson, VP of Operation stated, "The challenge of complying with California labor laws is not just how they are defined today. Ongoing cases each year have made complying somewhat of a moving target. Pacific Timesheet's highly configurable support for complying with these laws has been an advantage our customers with operations in California have been looking for."

According to the California Labor Code, “In California, an employer may not employ an employee for a work period of more than five hours per day without providing the employee with a meal period of not less than thirty minutes, except that if the total work period per day of the employee is no more than six hours, the meal period may be waived by mutual consent of both the employer and employee. A second meal period of not less than thirty minutes is required if an employee works more than ten hours per day, except that if the total hours worked is no more than 12 hours, the second meal period may be waived by mutual consent of the employer and employee only if the first meal period was not waived.”

Dickerson continued, “Pacific Timesheet provides support for an unlimited number of rule combinations, which includes rules for employees who sign a meal penalty waiver and those who do not sign a meal penalty waiver.” In addition, Pacific Timesheet has provided support that allows for individual meal penalty overrides or split shift overrides or waivers with a detailed comment for auditing for circumstances where the penalty or premium needs to be modified according to the California labor code. Pacific Timesheet also provides extensive support for California overtime rules, including consecutive-day overtime rules.

Variable Bill and Pay Rates

Pacific Timesheet has a very flexible bill and pay rate engine. This allows you to configure your rates to depend on not just the employee or the project, but to have rates that also depend on tasks, jobs, projects or cost centers. You configure which system objects rates depend on from the System > General > Bill Rate Options and Pay Rate Options pages. For instance, you can configure bill rates to depend on the employee and project. You would then set a default bill rate on the employee’s profile (Employees tab), and add project-specific rates as needed below the profile. Note that bill and pay rates take effect for the current timesheet period and will not affect submitted timesheets.
