Clock Breaks
Clock Breaks are rules that can be applied when an employee clock swipes their Break time. For example, a rule could be something like:
'All breaks between 11:00am and 2:00pm are 30 minutes long with a 3-minute grace period for employees who clock in late'.
- If an employee clocks out for 18 minutes, 30 minutes is deducted from the worked time.
- If an employee clocks out for 33 minutes, 30 minutes is deducted from the worked time.
- However, if an employee clocks out for 37 minutes (which exceeds the Break and Grace time periods), PayGlobal would accept the 37 minutes and adjust the employee times using Anchoring or Rounding rules.
