Overtime Settings

What this page controls

Overtime Settings sets the workspace's Workweek start day and the workspace-wide overtime rules Clockspot reports use when calculating overtime.

Workweek start

Use Workweek start day to choose where each workweek begins. Weekly overtime, whole-workweek report ranges, and the week shown on Schedule use this boundary.

Presets

Use Preset to load Federal (default), California, Alaska / Nevada daily OT, Colorado, or Kentucky rules. If the current rules do not match a preset, the selector shows Custom.

Presets load common rule shapes. They do not decide whether a wage, industry, alternative schedule, or other exception applies. Confirm the rules for your employees before saving.

Rules

Each rule has a Type, Threshold (hrs), and Multiplier:

• Weekly applies after the weekly threshold.
• Daily applies after the daily threshold.
• Seventh day applies on the seventh consecutive worked day in a workweek.

Use Add rule to add another rule. Use Remove overtime rule to remove one.

Alerts

Turn on the alerts you want:

• Projected overtime alerts when worked time plus the remaining parts of published shifts is expected to cross a weekly, daily, or seventh-day rule.
• Approaching weekly overtime alerts when worked time enters the selected warning window before a weekly rule.
• Entered overtime alerts after worked time crosses any configured rule.

Clockspot checks after successful clock-ins and clock-outs and also rechecks in the background. Each threshold alert is sent once per employee for its rule period.

Alerts go to the owner and admins in Clockspot. Each recipient controls email delivery in their notification preferences. Hours aggregate across locations for each employee. Time off does not count as worked time.

Projected alerts use published shifts. Draft shifts can still show an advisory overtime warning while you add or edit them on Schedule, but they do not send projected alerts until published.
