Overtime Policies for ExakTime

While employees are working throughout their week, you may need to track when they work over their normal work schedule and should receive overtime or even doubletime. The tracking of the overtime/doubletime can be based on the employee and/or the location worked. 

While this article covers our overtime policies, we also have articles for other employee and location based policies: Employee Policies and Location Policies

 Consult Legal Counsel

If you are unsure of the legality of any of these Policies or what is expected for your region/union, it is advised to consult with your legal counsel prior to enabling any of them.

Interactions from Multiple Overtime Policies

As an employee can have multiple overtime policies, it is important to be aware of how these multiple policies can interact and calculate the employee's time card. 

For more information about how multiple overtime policies can interact, you can refer to the following article.

Employee based overtime is set up with your policy groups. When the policy group is assigned to an employee, their time will be calculated based on the overtime rules for that policy group.

Used to calculate overtime and/or doubletime that is dependent on a specific day.

Use the checkbox in the 'Exclude' column for any day of the week that should not be counted towards your daily/weekly overtime. For example, if you have any work performed on the weekend that will always be overtime and will not count towards your typical weekly overtime calculation.
