We have added a new automated award rule, ‘Worked Outside Availability.’ Once configured, this rule will trigger when a worked shift has a corresponding rostered schedule and overlaps with approved employee unavailability.
For example, in the image below, the employee had approved unavailability from 9am-1pm but worked a shift from 8am-4pm anyway. Therefore, the rule applied.
To configure this rule, navigate to
Time & Attendance > Compliance > Custom Award Rules > Manage > + New Award Rule.
From here, name your rule and select which staff it applies to. Then, under Step 3, ‘Conditions’, tick ‘After number of hours worked’ and select ‘Worked Outside Availability.’
Finally, nominate the rate at which the rule is paid, link it to your payroll system, and click ‘Create Rule’. The rule will now automate overtime payments when the above criteria are met.
