Employee-Initiated Unpaid Breaks

Employees-initiated unpaid breaks get started and ended by the employee. For these breaks, rules can be configured to ensure that employees comply with break rules such as California meal break rules. Employees can start and end unpaid breaks through the following methods:

• Click the Start Break or End Break buttons on the employee web portal
• Text the letter ‘b’ to your toll-free clock in number
• Call the toll-free clock-in number and press 1 when prompted
  

*To turn on this feature, go to Admin —> Settings —> General Settings —> check the box labeled “Enable IVR and SMS breaks.”
