With the time change coming, how do we calculate hours worked for the graveyard shift?
HRCalifornia
Employees must be paid for actual hours worked, regardless of time clock settings. If a timekeeping system does not adjust for daylight saving time, employers must manually correct hours.
When a shift spans the time change, adjustments must be made to the schedule or timekeeping method.
In the spring, employees typically work seven hours and are paid for seven hours. In the fall, employees work nine hours and must be paid for nine hours.
