Automated Overtime Tracking Software

Stop manually calculating 1.5x and 2.0x rates. Our engine applies your specific company or union logic to every hour worked, so overtime tracking and job costs are perfectly accurate on every timesheet.

Advanced Logic Capabilities

  • Daily & Weekly Rules: Automatically apply overtime after 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week (or both).
  • 7th Day Logic: Automatically calculate complex state rules like California's "7th Consecutive Day" double-time. (For the legal side, see our labor law compliance software.)
  • Weighted Averages: Calculate blended rates for employees who work multiple roles or trades in a single pay period.

Automatic Lunch Deduction & Break Rules

Ensure accurate pay without the administrative hassle. mJob's timesheet automation lets you configure rules to automatically deduct lunch breaks or flag missed breaks for manager review — the legal break requirements themselves are covered on our labor law compliance page.

  • Auto-Deduct Logic: Automatically deduct 30 minutes for lunch after an employee works 6 consecutive hours.
  • Paid vs. Unpaid: Distinguish between paid rest breaks and unpaid meal periods for accurate costing.
  • Review Flags: Instantly flag timesheets where a configured break wasn't taken so a manager can review it.

Complex Shift & Holiday Logic

Construction doesn't always happen 9-to-5. mJob's overtime management automatically processes non-standard schedules so every timesheet reflects reality.

Shift Differentials

Automatically add premium rates or flat amounts for non-standard schedules, such as night work or "Graveyard Shifts."

Holiday Pay Rules

Configure specific multipliers (like triple-time on major holidays) so the system calculates it instantly, saving hours of manual payroll math.

Time Automation FAQs

Common questions about how mJob eliminates manual payroll math.

What is overtime tracking software for construction?

Overtime tracking software is a smart rule engine that sits between field entry and your ERP. mJob automatically calculates overtime, double-time, shift differentials, and lunch deductions on every timesheet before data is ever exported.

How does timesheet automation work?

You configure your company or union rules once (e.g., overtime after 8 hours daily or 40 hours weekly). The system then applies those rules to create automated timesheets, eliminating manual spreadsheet calculations and human error.

Can it handle multiple different union rules simultaneously?

Yes. The engine is highly configurable and can apply different logic rulesets based on the specific union local, state law, or employee profile associated with the hours worked.
