Enter Emergency Schedule and Substitute Emergency Schedule

Explanation

The activity of enter Emergency Schedule is used to describe the compensation for emergency service duty. The emergency service schedule is defined by emergency service types. These, in turn, define how each day is to be compensated in terms of wage codes for the time intervals.

An employee’s normal additional compensation for emergency service is described in a cycle schedule. The length of the cycle is normally one week, but can vary depending on the agreement. The cycle is applied for both future and past dates. 

The normal schedule is supplemented by a substitute schedule, which contains days on which the compensation is different from the specified cycle. The substitute schedule normally includes the public holidays.

The structure and set-up of the emergency service schedule is similar to the working hours schedule.

The activity of enter Substitute Emergency Schedule is used to register substitute emergency (service) schedules. The substitute emergency schedule supplements the ordinary emergency schedule with the days that do not follow the standard cycle. You must enter the substitutes with the applicable accounting dates. Substitutes always override the ordinary schedule. If you leave any information out of the substitute emergency schedule, the corresponding information is retrieved from the ordinary schedule.

A substitute schedule can be linked to several different ordinary schedules. The connection is done on the Emergency Schedule section.
