Overview
Employee contract agreements may state that an employee works a specified standard number of hours per week. Standard work hours pertain to an employee who works regular hours for a certain period. Using standard hours can help speed up administrative tasks like scheduling. You can configure the total number of hours an employee works over a one or two week period.

So you have now posted a shout out onto the Company Feed and you are now wondering what next can I do. There are two recommendations I would make on this front and they are:
