Staff Breaks
This guide will cover how to access and amend the staff break rules for the payroll system on Care Control Windows. This only applies if staff breaks are unpaid, and this is turned on in the payroll settings.
1
In the Administration of Care Control Windows, navigate to the Manage Pay Rates tool, which can be found under the Time & Attendance tab.
2
Here, select Staff Breaks from the options along the bottom of the window.
3
A new window will open. Any existing staff breaks will be displayed.
Here, you can set out the different break lengths associated with different shifts so that the payroll system knows how much pay to deduct from a shift.
Begin by entering a Unique Description. This could be ‘8 hour shift‘ for example. Then, enter the length of the shift in minutes as well as the break length in minutes.
Please note – the Shift Length in minutes is for the whole shift, including any break.
4
In this example, our 8 hour shift works out as 480 minutes in length.
This shift has a 30 minute break.
Continue to add these breaks for all the shift lengths you require.
Press Save Details after making any amendments.
