What types of absences does Skello offer?

Absences without overtime compensation

If the establishment operates without overtime compensation, absences are divided into four categories:

  1. Absences compensated by the employer:

    • Authorized paid absences, medical examinations, lay-offs, event-related leave, etc.
      ​

  2. Absences compensated by a third party:

    • Commuting accident, workplace accident, sick leave, maternity leave, paternity leave, etc.
      ​

  3. Absences without compensation:

    • Authorized absences, entry/exit, unjustified, parental leave, sick leave, strike, etc.
      ​

  4. Neutral absences:

    • On-call duty, break, weekly rest. These absences do not affect the total number of hours on the schedule, but are for information purposes only.
      ​


Absences with additional hours compensation

If overtime compensation is activated, absences are divided into three categories:

  1. Absences included in the hour tracker:

    • Considered as actual working hours to avoid discrepancies in total weekly hours.

    • Example: Employee at CFA all week, total of 35 hours, no hours to make up.
      ​

  2. Absences not included in the hour tracker:

    • Can create a negative difference on the tracker in relation to the weekly hours total.

    • Example: An employee works 30h and is on authorized absence 5h, balance at -5h to be made up in subsequent weeks.
      ​

  3. Neutral absences:

    • Have no impact on total scheduled hours, information value on schedule and report.

    • Neutral absences: On-call duty, break, weekly rest.
      ​
