The revised Working Hours Act entered into force on 1 January 2020. The law allows the use of an hour bank in all workplaces. The details of the working time bank must be agreed between the employer and the employees:

  • Do you want to reset the balance at some point?
  • Which items are transferred to the working time bank?
  • How can you use your time off?

How does the hour bank work in Navisystem?

Navisystem working time tracking automatically tracks a user's sliding balance. The user always sees their own real-time sliding balance in the mobile application, and the administrative user can view the balances of all users. If an employee works a day longer than normal working hours, the sliding balance increases. Correspondingly, the balance decreases if the working day is shorter than normal working hours. Sliding balance processing can be fully automated if special cases according to the collective agreement are defined in the system, such as weekday holidays, overtime and absence rules.
