The summed-up time recording
Most of employers calculate the salary of the employees, based on a time recording. There are several types of accounting of working time: day, weekly and summed up. Whether it is worth explaining that not only your salary, but also your performance depends on correctly selected accounting. The choice should suit both the employer, and the worker. In article the speech about the summed-up time recording will go.
It is a little about the law
If to consider not summed up time recording, then there is one big minus for the employer - it is overtime. "Why minus?" – you ask. Overtime are paid one and a half-two times above, than normal hours. At the same time duration of overtime work cannot exceed 4 hours within two days in a row and 120 hours a year (Article 152 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation * the link to the law *).
Let's allow the following situation. We will not go into details, to us the main thing to understand an essence. You have a project on which you should work daily for 8 hours. In a month at you 160 hours should turn out. Month comes to an end, however you understand that you will lack standard 8 hours a day to manage to fulfill the regulation (the reasons on that can be absolutely different). Should you work overtime, however to whom it is profitable? To you? yes. To the employer? No. Most often, so far as concerns work which depends on a set of factors whether it be it is banal weather conditions, it is more profitable to select the summed-up time recording. The employer appoints to you a certain number of hours for the period, in our case – 160 hours in a month. Now you have no temporary restrictions for one day, you can work though the whole nights. The employer should not pay overtime, you can work at any convenient time.
So, than the summed-up accounting as a result is convenient. Your main task – to fulfill the put hours for a certain period. To the employer it is not important, you work a day two or all twelve hours. To the employer it is important that you executed the regulation. At the summed-up accounting you will not even break the law that in a week it is possible to work no more than 40 hours. But also the summed-up accounting has framework. The accounting period cannot exceed one year, and for a time recording of the workers occupied at works with harmful and (or) dangerous working conditions - three months.
To whom the summed-up time recording is profitable
There are three categories of people for which the summed-up time recording best of all will be suitable: the freelancers, workers employed for work on the project and those at whom the replaceable diagram is set. Among them freelancers are especially selected, many employers began to shift important work to their shoulders recently. Now it is possible to come on any popular exchange of freelancers and to find the specialist absolutely in any field of activity, the demand of freelancers every day is higher and higher.
But freelancers did not get used to sit at offices, as a rule they work, sitting at home or in other place, comfortable for work, everything that is necessary for most of freelancers – the notebook. For this reason it is more convenient to freelancers to designate a task for month (our 160 hours from an example) and the freelancer will execute it. But, that you could monitor work of the freelancer, understand that in "working" hours he really works, programs of a time recording are used. One of them – the Time the Doctor.
Time the Doctor – the program of a time recording. The worker sets it on the computer and starts when works. The time the Doctor has a set of tools thanks to which it is possible to learn without effort, what is the time the freelancer really worked, but not just was online. The employer does not need to plague the employee, it is not necessary most to monitor work, for him everything will be made by the program. However, if there is a need – the employer can always check at what stage there is a work with the help of screenshots of a desktop of the employee now.
Time the Doctor allows to receive statistics of the websites and programs used by the freelancer. Deceive the Time the Doctor at the freelancer will not turn out, the program analyzes work of the freelancer, based on a set of factors, whether it be the movement of a mouse, the used programs or screenshots. The employer needs only to browse reports which the Doctor will prepare the Time.
