Configuring Overtime Premiums

In some provinces and territories, labor regulations require an overtime premium after a certain threshold.

For example, in Alberta, each hour over 8 hours per day and over 40 hours per week counts as 1.5 hours.

Feuille de Temps automatically calculates overtime premiums according to regulations, once the rule is configured for your organization.
