If employees have a maximum number of hours they are allowed to work per week (which is separate to their weekly contracted hours) an Admin or Manager* can add this in their profile. This will then flag up on your rota to help prevent you from scheduling over these hours.
*Managers must have the permission 'Add employees and manage basic information (email, locations, roles, allowances, etc)' and must manage a location the employee is assigned to work at.
Adding maximum weekly hours
To add maximum weekly hours, click on your Company tab and select Employees.
From your list of employees, click the user you'd like to add maximum hours for. On the first page of their profile, you'll see the a box for 'Maximum weekly hours'. Simply enter your figure here and scroll down to the bottom of the page to save.
Viewing maximum weekly hours on your rota
Once you've added maximum weekly hours to an employee's profile, these will show beside their name. If you exceed their maximum weekly hours, this will highlight in red to make you aware - this can also be hovered to show more details.
In addition to this, if any of your employees are over their maximum weekly hours for that particular week on your rota, the week summary in the top left corner will highlight in red - this can also be hovered to see more information.
Maximum weekly hours setting for open shifts
If you wish to stop employees claiming shifts which would take them over their weekly hours, this setting can be applied by any admin-level user.
To enable this, simply click the cog icon in the top right of your account access your settings and scroll down to the Open Shifts section. Click the option 'Apply Maximum Weekly Hours cap when staff claim open shifts' and open shift requests will be automatically declined if this shift will take them over their maximum weekly hours.
