What Kloqk does about it

  • 7(k) work periods

    Pro

    Pick a work period from 7 to 28 days. Overtime is counted past the threshold for that period.

  • Comp time with the caps built in

    Pro

    Overtime banks as comp time at 1.5 hours per hour, up to 240 hours or 480 for public safety. Past the cap it is paid in cash.

  • Pay groups

    Pro

    Full-time, part-time, seasonal and sworn staff each follow their own overtime and comp rules.

  • Supervisor sign-off

    Pro

    Each person signs their period, a supervisor approves it, and payroll gets only approved hours.
