When you have enabled pre/post payable hours, it provides you with the ability to pay your employees a different rate on-site vs. off-site (pre site and post site).
The new pre/post payable hours will share the same threshold limits as the hours on-site but allow you to pay a different rate.
Set up
To set it up, select 'Payroll' from the left menu panel, then select 'EBA' from the top banner menu, and create a new EBA or edit an existing one.
Scroll down to the header 'Pre/Post site payable hours'
Toggle on ‘use pre/post site payable hours’.
Once enabled, the dropdown condition will be editable and a slider will display below.
Conditions

THEN
The shift duration will be split into pre-site, site, and post-site. Additional payable hours will be available to map a different rate. The same threshold limit will apply across pre/post site and site hours. The pre-site start time and the post-site end time will use the new slider.

The shift will use the standard payable hours and use the start/end times from the Straight to site slider.

Example scenarios
Example 1: Long day shift
Example 1: Long day shift
Day ordinary limit = 8 hours
Arrive at depot = 08:00
Leave depot = 09:00
Start on site = 09:30
Finish on site = 16:30
Return to depot = 17:00
This translates to the rate allocation below:
08:00 - 09:30 = 1.5 hrs pre/post day ordinary
09:30 - 16:00 = 6.5 hrs day ordinary
16:00 - 16:30 = 0.5 hrs day overtime
16:30 - 17:00 = 0.5 hrs pre/post day overtime
Example 2: Split shift (day/night)
Example 2: Split shift (day/night)
Day timeframe 06:00 - 18:00
Day ordinary limit = 8 hours
Night ordinary limit = 2 hours
Night overtime limit = 2 hours
Use Weekday shift (split day/night) = enabled
Simple split setting = enabled (threshold limit starts from zero following split)
Leave depot = 15:00
Start on site = 16:00
Finish on site = 22:00
Return to depot = 23:00
This translates to the rate allocation below:
15:00-16:00 1 hr pre/post day ordinary
16:00-18:00 2 hrs day ordinary
18:00-20:00 2 hrs night ordinary (18:00 night starts)
20:00-22:00 2 hrs night overtime (2 night threshold reached)
22:00-23:00 1 hr pre/post night overtime
FAQ
How do the start/end time overrides in the pay run work?
How do the start/end time overrides in the pay run work?
When using pre/post payable hours, the start/end overrides in the pay run only reflect the time on-site. To update the pre/post times, open the corresponding docket and manually change the time.
