If your Organisation has multiple Shift Types the option to choose different shift types will be available to you. The multiple types of shifts are permission based and will be set up by your account manager on configuration or any time afterwards.

*** If you require a different shift type please contact your system admin ***

Shift types, explained:

  • Standard - a normal shift with no parameters

  • Sleep in - Defined as a shift that has a flat fee with no waking hours. In the system it has a unique code, assigned at the time Shift Type is created, that can be identified in reports by your payroll team for payment purposes. You can have many ‘Sleep in’ options with different names.

  • On call - Defined as a shift that has a fee plus waking hours that can be added to the timesheet by either the worker or the manager. In the system it has a unique code that can be identified in reports by your payroll team. The waking hours are editable and visible on the timesheet and reports. You can have many ‘On call’ options with different names.
