New Hire Defaults

New Hire Defaults are used to assign your employees to a set group of company policies. A New Hire Default template is created with the desired company policies specified. Employees are then assigned to a template. This assigns the employees to the company policies specified within the New Hire Default template.

The following company policies can be assigned through a New Hire Default:

  • Overtime

  • Pay Period

  • Default Department

  • Rounding Policies

  • Premium Pay Codes

  • Accruals

  • Holiday List

  • Minimum Hours Policies

  • Meal Breaks

Note on Documentation:

This setup allows you to assign your employees to various policies (such as Rounding and Premium Pay). These sections of the setup are only available if you have previously set up the corresponding policies. If, when going through the documentation, you notice that a step is included which is not available to you, this is because the policy that the step walks you through has not been set up.
