Track Extended Work and Comp Time Benefits with AI

In industries like aerospace and defense, exempt employees often work beyond their standard hours to meet critical deadlines. For example, an employee working a 54-hour week might see those extra hours divided into Extended Work Time (EWT) and Compensatory (comp) time—two essential benefits designed to ensure fair compensation for their dedication. EWT offers immediate paid time for additional hours worked, while comp time allows employees to bank hours for future paid time off. These benefits are crucial for maintaining employee morale and retention while helping businesses stay on track with demanding schedules.

However, managing these benefits can become challenging, especially when policies involve complexities like unpaid thresholds (gates) or varying eligibility rules. Traditional systems often falter under this complexity, leaving HR teams burdened with manual calculations and enforcement. This is where **CloudApper** comes in, providing a seamless solution to manage EWT and comp time while integrating effortlessly with any major HCM platform, including Workday, Oracle, isolved, UKG, and more.

CloudApper automates the entire process—from tracking extended hours to applying eligibility rules and calculating benefits—without adding any hassle. By transforming a standard Android tablet or iPad into a smart time clock integrated with your HCM system, employees can easily record their work hours from anywhere, even offline. Meanwhile, the platform handles the heavy lifting, ensuring compliance with company policies and labor laws.

Let’s look at Vince’s case. Vince, an exempt employee, works 54 hours in a week. Instead of using spreadsheets or manually allocating hours to regular time, EWT, or comp time, CloudApper automates the process. It calculates Vince’s regular 40 hours, identifies the EWT threshold, and allocates the remainder to comp time—all in real time, with no errors. If Vince’s employer has a five-hour gate, the platform adjusts the calculations accordingly, ensuring fairness and transparency for both Vince and the organization.

What sets CloudApper apart is its adaptability. Every organization has unique policies and requirements, and CloudApper’s AI-powered platform accommodates them effortlessly. Whether creating custom data capture forms, embedding analytics, or integrating with third-party software, the platform tailors itself to your needs. It’s not about one-size-fits-all solutions—it’s about aligning technology with your business without the complexity of traditional development.
