With the rule checker, you can set up your own rules for your schedule so you comply with the rules that apply to your business. The rule checker can detect violations of the rules you’ve set up by showing warnings, so you can continuously ensure your schedule stays compliant.

An example rule is the 11-hour rule, which gives employees the right to a rest period of at least 11 consecutive hours within each 24-hour period. If this rule is set up in the rule checker and is violated, you’ll be notified with a warning in the schedule.

To set up rules for the rule checker, go to Settings by clicking the '⚙️' icon in the top-right corner of the schedule, then go to 'Schedule', and finally click 'Manage rules'.

There are two basic types of rules that can be set up and customized in the rule checker:

With the 'Overlapping shifts' rule, you can set up rules to ensure that the same employee’s shifts don’t overlap each other.

With the 'Rest rule', you can set up rules for how long a rest period an employee must have within a rolling period (for example, the 11-hour rule). Here, you can customize the minimum rest period in hours and minutes, and set the control period that the rule checker should use when checking shifts.

You can customize the rule type, the rule name, and the rule requirements, and set up multiple rules by clicking the blue '➕' icon in the top-right corner.
