MEAL SCHED - Meal Scheduled #

Time Rule Overview#

This is a helper time rule for the Meal Penalty time rule, to define a schedule of meals granted.

Requirements / Features#

  • Time Rule Type Code: MEAL SCHED

Meal Schedule Types:#

When the From /To fields are defined:

  • When the From and To fields are defined, this is known as "Meal Schedule Meal Time"
  • When the Meal Penalty time rule does not have the Premium or Value defined
  • Creates the ability to apply different premiums, depending on the premium time
  • The time rule will try to identify the premium to apply, based on the premium time

When the Value field is defined:

  • When just the Value is defined, this is known as "Meal Schedule Numbers of Meal Awarded or Taken"
  • When the Meal Penalty does not have the Premium defined or From /To fields defined
  • Creates the ability to apply different premiums, depending on the number of meals awarded
  • The time rule will try to match the Band with the number of meals awarded or taken. If a match is found, it will apply that Premium
  • If the number of meals awarded is greater than the Band, it will start the cycle from the beginning.
  • The band is number of meal awarded or taken
  • When the Value has been defined and is greater than 0, it will override the minimum meal length, defined in hours. If an employee takes a meal and it is less than the defined Value, then it will not be considered as a meal taken, and it will not reset the "counter" in Meal Penalty.
  • If an override Premium is defined, the system looks at the meal length defined in Min Meal Length. If no meal time is found, it will reset the 'counter'.

When the Premium field is defined:

  • When just the Premium is defined, this is known as "Meal Schedule Manual Meal Premiums". In this situation the Meal Penalty should have a Premium defined
  • Users have the ability to configure if any manual Premium is added, the "counter" will reset in Meal Penalty
  • Used when the From/To and Value fields have not been defined
Any premium defined on all 3 MEAL SCHEDULE types will reset the "counter".
