ROSTERkey is able to alert Managers and Administrators when a worker has worked for an excessive amount of time. This alert is configured in Configuration -> Alert -> Excessive Hours.
The below examples show details for two rules configured for the Excessive Hours Alert.
Each rule configuration has the following information:
- Name of the rule.
- The date range to which the rule applies, i.e. From and To.
- The message to be displayed when the rule is broken.
- The severity of the alert.
- Whether or not the alert can be suppressed by managers.
- Window Type: whether the rule applies to a "moving window" or a "weekly window".
- A "moving window" signifies that the alert will be raised whenever a worker exceeds the maximum allowed time, for any time period matching the window's specified duration. In the first example shown, the alert is raised whenever a worker works more than 12:30 in any 24 hour period.
- A "weekly window" signifies that the alert will be raised whenever a worker exceeds the maximum allowed time over a week, where a week starts on the specified day and time. In the second example shown, the alert is raised whenever a worker works more than 70 hours a week, where a week starts on Wednesdays at 6am.
- If the Window Type = "Moving", the duration of the window that is to be checked against.
- If the Window Type = "Weekly", the day and time that signifies the start of a week.
- The maximum allowed time a worker can work in the specified window.
- The roles the rule applies to:
- If any roles are specified, the rule only applies to those times where a worker is assigned to one of the given roles.
- If no roles are specified, the rule applies to all times a worker works.
- Worker Tags. If any Tags are listed with this rule, then only workers that have ALL of the listed Tags associated to themselves (via the Configuration -> System -> Worker Settings) are checked by the rule.
