MEAL SCHED - Meal Scheduled #

Time Rule Overview#

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

Requirements / Features#

  • Time Rule Type Code: MEAL SCHED

Meal Schedule Types:#

  • From /To 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
  • Value 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'.
  • Premiumis 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".
