Announcing Our New Overtime Reports

On March 7th, new federal overtime regulations were set to take effect. These requirements drastically expanded the scope — and cost — of employee overtime, and impacted businesses and nonprofit organizations across the country. The FLSA ruling increased minimum salary thresholds, set the stage for future overtime increases, and redefined overtime exception so that more than a million additional American workers became eligible for overtime compensation. In support of this regulation, we’ve launched new overtime features for our customers.

Employee Overtime Reporting

Our new overtime reports highlight who worked overtime hours, how much time off was taken in a given work period, and who approved the overtime work. These reports are intended to make managing and planning employee overtime hours much easier for your team.

Reporting on CA Overtime Rules

California overtime is significantly more complicated than the federal rule. Our new overtime reports support the CA regulations, which require eligible employees to receive 1.5x their regular rate of pay for:

• All hours worked in excess of eight, up to and including 12 hours in any workday
• The first eight hours worked on the seventh consecutive day of work in a workweek

And double their regular rate of pay for:

• All hours worked over 12 in any workday
• All hours worked over 8 on the seventh consecutive day of work in a workweek

Exporting Overtime Data to Payroll

We've created a new Payroll Export to include overtime data. This report exports data for timesheets that are both approved and include overtime hours. The Overtime Export for Payroll report shows:

• The name of the person who submitted hours
• A description of type of hours worked
• The number of hours of regular worked time
• The total hours of overtime, broken out by pay code

Approving Employee Overtime

When an employee submits a timesheet, their timesheet approver is notified by email and in-app notifications. This process is the same for when an employee submits a timesheet that includes overtime. To make managing overtime a bit easier, if overtime hours are submitted, the Total Hours number at the bottom of the timesheet will be highlighted for you.

Setting Up Overtime Reporting

Our new overtime features are available to customers who use the Approvals Module, and who have a weekly or bi-weekly timesheet. To configure your company's Overtime Rules, you'll need to first select which of your employees are eligible for overtime. To do so, go to People under the Company Tab, and click on the Employment Type page. If you need any help using or setting up our new overtime reports, please contact us at support@clicktime.com
