As an organisation, you would have set up your employees with set working hours they need to adhere to as part of their employment with your business. These working hours usually fall under either standard working hours, i.e. the employee works 38 hours every week without change, or custom working hours, i.e. the employee works different hours per day, so 8 hours on Monday and 7 hours on Tuesday.
The Work Hours feature within an employees file allows you to add the standard working hours to the chosen employees personnel file and specify their normal working hours per week and their ordinary week day in hours. You can also use this feature to add the custom work hours to the chosen employees' personnel file and specify the allocated work type and the hours worked per day, with the ability to enter this data over a two-week period.

Employment Hero bases the first and second working week on an employee's start date, i.e. if an employee's start date is the 1st of January, the week of the 1st January to the 7th January will be their first working week. Then from the 8th January to the 15th of January will be their second working week.
Please note that Custom Work Hours are only compatible with the Employment Hero Payroll platform.
