Additional Information

This is the second step to ensure employees are able to record their breaks and waive if required. 

When an employee voluntarily waives their break, they will sign these forms when they clock out at the end of their shift. Note, that Break Waivers is only available on the Push Time app.

If your employees sign a yearly waiver and does not require signing a transactional waiver each time, we recommend creating a Form of this waiver so employees can complete during one of the following: Employee Onboarding, HR Employee Task, or a form submission via the Push Time app. 

Once an employee completes the Waiver Form, you will have the ability to enable under their Employee Profile: Upload Files - Pre-signed Break Waiver Setup so the system does not trigger the transactional waiver.

Push Support cannot advise or adjust any break setup in the account. If you are in a US State with regulated breaks, we strongly recommend contacting an attorney who works on Labour Laws to ensure you follow the most up-to-date regulations. 

Please note, that only Super Administrators have access to make changes to Break Waivers Setup.
