Work Instruction
Overtime
Overtime is work rendered beyond the Work Shift (i.e. after the intended end of the shift). Employees assigned with Time-bounded Shifts and Semi-Flexible Shifts are eligible for rendering and earning premium pay from overtime.
Minimum time computed as Overtime shall be at least 30 minutes. Any request with less than 30 minutes of rendered excess time after the Work Shift shall not be considered Overtime.
Work rendered in Overtime, in principle, must be pre-approved by the Department Head / Immediate Superior. In the event of the unavailability of the Department Head to pre-approve Overtime within the Company’s online system, but with the approval given in principle, the employee is required to seek post-approval.
The employee is expected to file for Overtime within twenty-four (24) hours upon return to work in the succeeding Assigned Work Shift.
Authorized Change in Assigned Work Shift
For any change in Work Shift of any employee assigned with a Time-bounded Shift, the respective Department Head must be responsible to assign the new Assigned Work Shift. The authorized change MUST be done BEFORE the start of the new Assigned Work Shift.
If an Employee may be allowed to choose their schedule, the choice shall be approved by the Department Head to ensure that specific office roles are continuously performed
Changing the Work Shift after the employee has clocked in may be considered tampering with time logs and may lead to disciplinary action.
