Examples

This section includes some practical examples of shifts that violate or pass this schedule compliance rule.

Example Configuration

The following examples use these configuration settings:

  • Max Hours / Schedule: 60
  • LFSO Schedule Period: 10 Days

Example 1 - Pass

Employee A is scheduled to work:

  • Day 1 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • Day 2 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • Day 3 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM
  • Day 4 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM
  • Day 5 OFF
  • Day 6 OFF
  • Day 7 OFF
  • Day 8 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • Day 9 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM
  • Day 10 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM

Schedule compliance does not return a violation because the total scheduled hours (54 hours) do not exceed the limit (60 hours).

Example 2 - Violation (extra shift)

Employee B is scheduled to work:

  • Day 1 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • Day 2 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • Day 3 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM
  • Day 4 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM
  • Day 5 OFF
  • Day 6 OFF
  • Day 7 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • Day 8 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM
  • Day 9 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM
  • Day 10 4:00 PM - 10:00 PM

Schedule compliance returns a violation because the scheduled hours (64 hours) total exceeds the limit (60 hours).

Example 3 - Pass

Employee C is scheduled to work:

  • Day 1 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 2 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 3 OFF
  • Day 4 OFF
  • Day 5 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 6 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 7 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 8 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 9 OFF
  • Day 10 OFF

Schedule compliance does not return a violation because the total scheduled hours (60 hours) do not exceed the limit (60 hours). The 10 hours attributed to the previous LFSO schedule period are not considered.

Example 4 - Violate

Employee D is scheduled to work:

  • Day 1 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 2 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 3 OFF
  • Day 4 OFF
  • Day 5 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 6 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 7 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 8 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM
  • Day 9 OFF
  • Day 10 8:00 PM - 6:00 AM

Schedule compliance returns a violation because the total scheduled hours (70 hours) exceed the limit (60 hours). The 10 hours on Day 10 are attributed to the current LFSO schedule period.
