Overtime management features in iFlow
Simple overtime and time off tracking
iFlow enables employees or team leaders to log overtime and time off seamlessly. This doesn’t have an expiration date, allowing employees to see all logged overtime hours until they’re either used or compensated. Managers can also set monthly limits, giving better control over how much overtime is accumulated.
Overtime pay compensation
With iFlow, companies have flexibility in overtime compensation. Managers can either pay employees for extra hours or offer compensatory time off. This flexibility ensures that companies stay compliant with labor laws and internal policies while offering employees options that suit their needs.
Tracking compensation for weekends and legal holidays
iFlow tracks overtime hours worked on weekends and legal holidays, allowing managers to set specific rules for these days. Special rates or time-off options can be applied, ensuring fair and consistent compensation and compliance with legal standards. Employees who work extra hours on weekends or holidays receive tailored compensation according to company or legal requirements.
Employee profile widgets
iFlow includes widgets in each employee’s profile to display real-time overtime and time off data. These widgets provide a clear view of the following:
- Total overtime: Displays the accumulated overtime hours available for compensation
- Time off taken: Shows the hours of time off already used, helping employees track their balance
- Balance difference: Highlights the remaining balance of overtime and time off, making it easy for both managers and employees to understand what’s available
For businesses that need enhanced overtime tracking, iFlow also offers an optional overtime compensation widget. This premium widget, available as an additional feature, provides a detailed view of how overtime is managed and compensated. It includes:
- Overtime hours: Tracks the total hours worked beyond the standard schedule, logging all extra time
- Compensatory time: Specifically shows hours that employees have chosen to take as time off instead of receiving overtime pay, helping balance work with needed rest
- Overtime pay: Displays any monetary compensation received for overtime hours, ensuring clarity around payments for extra hours worked
- Overtime canceled: Logs any overtime hours that have been adjusted or canceled, keeping records accurate and up-to-date
- Available hours: Highlights the remaining overtime hours eligible for future compensation, either through pay or as compensatory time off
