2/14/2020 — New Feature — Hourly Accrual, Accrual Caps, and Updated Emails (Oh My!)
New ways to set up your paid time off policies in Justworks
Exciting news! We’re proud to announce that we’ve officially launched hourly accrual and accrual caps in Justworks. Hourly accrual is the ability to accrue paid time off (PTO) based on hours worked (i.e. 1 hour of PTO earned for every 30 hours worked), and accrual caps allow you to cap the total amount of time that can be accrued in a PTO policy.
Both additions increase the flexibility and types of policies you can create in Justworks. To check out these features, just click “Time off” under the “HR” header > “Add new policy.”
In addition, we’ve updated the email admins and managers receive when an employee requests time off. Now, when a new request comes through your inbox, you can see the employee’s current PTO balance as well as add an internal note to other admins and a personal note to the employee. Use the new notes field to tell your employee to relax and have a good time and let your team know that he or she will be out and might need a shift covered.
