There are seven conditions for penalties:

All except Unscheduled work are available in Method: Slicing or Range.
​


Late arrival

Use this condition to penalise employees when they arrive late to their shift according to a set time range.

Mid-day absence

Use this condition to penalise employees when they take too long on their lunch break, according to a set time.


Early departure

Use this condition to penalise employees when they depart early from their shift according to a set time range.


Employee is absent

Use this condition to penalise employees who are absent from all or part of a shift according to a set time range. This is the only condition available for Penalties of Type: Target Attendance.


Absence on a specific time

Use this condition to penalise employees who are absent at a specific time.
​


Absence on a specific day(s)

Use this condition to penalise employees who are absent on a specific day, days, or a range of dates.
​


Absence on specific shifts

Use this condition to penalise employees who are absent from specific shifts. This is not available for Rewards of Type Daily Attendance that are Based On Work Schedule Profile.


Slicing and Time Range methods for lateness, early departure, and absent penalties

Slicing is the default condition configuration for these penalties where the total length of absence, lateness, or early departure can apply to multiple penalties. #

For example, if you have two penalties whose conditions are set for lateness, and the timings are 1-15 minutes, and 16-30 minutes, an employee who is 35 minutes late will receive the consequences (or the Rules) of both penalties as an accumulation.

Range is the new method introduced where only one penalty will be applied according to the specific time range of the attendance exception.

Using the same example above, if the employee is late by 25 minutes, only the 16-30-minute lateness penalty will apply. If the employee is late by 35 minutes, no penalty will apply.


Unscheduled work

Use this condition to penalise employees who work an unscheduled attendance. Learn more about unscheduled attendance conditions here.
