Add an employment type#

For: Manager | Admin You’ll need: Nothing.

You’ll create an employment type with contracted hours, leave-policy links, and the default per-weekday hours that seed availability for people on this contract.

Open the form#

  1. Go to Company → Employment types in the left sidebar.

  2. Click ‚Add new employment type‘ in the top-right.

Fill in the basics#

  1. Enter a ‚Name‘ (e.g. „Full-time 40h“).

  2. Enter a short ‚Code‘ (e.g. „FT40“).

  3. (Optional) Add a ‚Description‘.

  4. Set the ‚Contracted hours‘ per week.

Set default hours per weekday#

  1. In the ‚Default hours per weekday‘ section, enter the standard hours for each day of the week (Mon–Sun).

  2. Click ‚Save‘.

Tipp

The per-weekday hours are the source for „Create availability from employment type“ when you set up a person’s availability. Set them once here so you don’t have to re-enter them per person.

Verify it worked#

The new employment type appears at Company → Employment types.
