Inside the day
Breaks, standby, travel between tasks, and the interruptions nobody records.
The Break That Did Not Happen
A rostered break and a taken break are different events, and almost every system records the first while reporting it as the second.
The Deduction That Happens Anyway
An automatic break deduction is a positive assertion that something occurred, made by a configuration setting, about an event nobody observed.
Being Available
Time spent available but not working is the hardest category in the subject, and the answer turns on how much the arrangement constrains the person's life.
Travel Between Jobs
Travel inside the working day is almost always working time and almost always missing from the record, because the systems count jobs, not days.
Waiting for Work
A person on site with nothing to do is being paid for, and some arrangements try to stop paying. That is where the clock gets used for something it should not be.
Training and the Thing on Your Day Off
Required activity outside the shift is working time whether or not it looks like the job, and e-learning at home is the version nobody records.
The Interruption Nobody Records
Short interruptions during unpaid periods are the smallest items in the subject and the ones that most reliably destroy an arrangement's legal footing.
