How does PTO work in 7shifts Payroll for Salaried Employees?

In 7shifts, salaried employees can submit Paid Time Off (PTO) requests using the same process as all employees. Once approved, PTO hours are deducted from the employee’s assumed 40-hour workweek and are not treated as additional hours beyond their regular schedule.

⚠️ Important Notes:

1. Weekly Salary Assumption:
   • 7shifts Payroll assumes salaried employees work a 40-hour week, regardless of actual time punches.
2. PTO Accrual Policies:
   • Salaried employees should not be assigned to hourly accrual PTO policies if they do not clock in/out for their shifts.
   • Hourly PTO accrual relies on actual time punches. As a result, a salaried employee's assumed 40-hour week will not contribute to PTO accrual under hourly policies.

3. Time Clocking and Payroll:

   • If a salaried employee or manager clocks in/out for their shifts, these time punches must be excluded from payroll to prevent double payments.
   • However, these punches can remain in the Time Clocking section for reporting purposes if needed.
