For employees on a daily rate contract, activating the daily rate rest counter allows you to track the rest days earned and used during the year.

The daily rate contract tracker is only available to employees on Skello daily rate contracts.
​

To find out how to track daily rate contracts once the counter has been activated, see this article: Using the daily rate contract (RTT) counter.
​

Go to Establishment settings by clicking on the cogwheel in the top right-hand corner of the screen. Select Rules > Trackers.
​

The number of days of daily rate contract rest earned per year is calculated on the basis of the number of days worked under the daily rate contract (generally 218) and the number of days not worked in the year, including weekly rest periods, paid time off and holidays.

Example for 2023:

For a daily rate contract of 218 days worked, the calculation is: 365 days - 139 days not worked - 218 days worked = 8 days of daily rate contract rest.
​

The tracker is configured in 4 steps:
​

Annual vesting: The employee's daily rate contract rest balance is fully vested at the beginning of the year.

Monthly acquisition: The employee acquires a daily rate contract rest balance each month, corresponding to the annual balance divided by 12.
​

The reference period is often from January to December, but can be customized according to the establishment's needs.
​

This month marks the start of tracker operation for employees.
​

Note: If the initialization month is different from the start of the reference period, the balance is calculated on a pro rata basis. For example, with a reference period of January-December 2023 and an initialization month of April, the balance will be 6 days (0.67 days x 9 months) instead of 8 days.
​

If employees have already acquired or used days before the initialization month, a history transfer can be entered to adjust the acquired balance.
​

Please note: the history transfer applies to all employees with a daily rate contract in the establishment. If some employees have no history, enter 0 in the corresponding box.
