Overtime Rules
Overtime is a conclusion, not an entry. The rules of the country a person is paid in apply to them, and the most specific wins: an agreement over a regional rule over the national one.

What you can do here
Public employer
A county, city or school district. Rules marked as not applying to a public employer are then passed over, and the weekly rule governs. A rule chosen on a pay group or an employee still wins.
Asks for: This company is a public employer
The rules that apply here
Everything on this screen obeys the platform rules rather than rules of its own. The ones worth knowing before you use it:
- Narrowing a list — search, conditions, sort, totals, export and saved views.
- What may be changed — the five grounds a record may not be edited on.
- Companies and business units — what the switcher above this list is doing to it.
- Creating a record — required fields, where choices come from, and how the number is allocated.
- Importing a spreadsheet — this screen accepts one, and it runs through the same rules as typing.
