Field Description
Labor Location

Enter, or click to select, the desired location.

Labor Group

Enter, or click to select, the Labor Group that is associated with this OT Basis and Labor Location.

OT Basis

From the drop-down list, select a system code that is used to define the time period basis for calculating overtime. Valid options are:

  • Daily: If you select this option, the overtime calculation computes the number of hours worked in a day and compares that to the exempt hours for this record to determine the overtime hours. For example, 10 hours worked in a day with the exempt hours set to 7 hours yields a result of 3 overtime hours.
  • Weekly: If you select this option, the overtime calculation compares the number of hours worked in a week to the number of exempt hours for this record. For example, 44 hours worked in a week (for the same state) with the exempt hours set to 35 yields a result of 9 overtime hours.
Warning:

The overtime calculation program takes into consideration timesheets that contain different states with conflicting overtime basis rules. It calculates the overtime for each location separately. States with a daily basis are done first. The weekly OT basis calculation then subtracts out all previous daily OT hours from the weekly calculated overtime hours. You must enter daily timesheets to have this calculation performed accurately. The starting date of the workweek is defined on the Manage Timesheet Periods screen.

Exempt Hours

This field displays the number of hours that are exempt from classification as overtime hours within the time period defined by the OT Basis code for this record. It is used in conjunction with the OT Basis code to calculate the number of overtime hours. For example, 7 might be appropriate for a daily OT Basis and 35 might be appropriate for a weekly OT Basis.
