Ofte stillede spørgsmål
What's considered overtime?
>40 hrs/week in USA (1.5x pay). UK: no set minimum; negotiated per contract. Varies by country and industry.
How do I calculate time worked if start/end times change daily?
Subtract start time from end time for each day. Account for breaks (usually unpaid 30-60 min).
Should I log break time?
Usually not. Unpaid breaks don't count as worked time. Meal breaks typically unpaid; short breaks (15 min) paid.
