Is there a way to restrict an employee from clocking in before 30 minutes from when they last clocked out? In California an employee must be relieved from all duties for at least 30 minutes. If an employee clocks back in at 29 minutes, this would be considered an incompliant lunch break and the company will have to pay them 1 hour of penalty pay. Restricting an employee from clocking in before 30 minutes will help the company ensure that the employee takes a meal period pursuant to CA labor code and will lower cost and risk.

A "clock out for lunch" button would be FANTASTIC Mark. But I think we also have to collect the manual clock back in or something.
Yes this would be helpful but a better solution might be to have a pop up message stating that they are clocking in before their meal period is over, and asking if this is voluntary or involuntary and if voluntary, asking them to explain why it's voluntary. Would also like a notification when they clock in for the first meal period after the fifth hour worked.
We are looking for this change. We were planning to migrate to Employee Portal for time card management, due to this meal break issue we stopped our implementation. Can we address this soon, so that we can continue with our implementation?
oh I am sorry. The login page.
Hey Mary,
Where in the portal are your users clocking in/out? We allow for the following:
Navbar
Login page
Web Kiosk
Field Web Kiosk
Thanks!
Hi Mark, I am using portal version 1.22.5.3779
That would be great if we can give the user the option to select "clock out for lunch" & "clock in from lunch" and restrict them from clocking in from lunch before 30 minutes.
I would prefer to not allow them to clock in because I can see an employee not taking it seriously if we allow it with just a warning.
Hey Mary,
Which type of clock in are you using? Do you think it makes sense to give the user the option to select an option for "Clock out for lunch" or would it be better on ever clock in to warn them if they have not take their full 30 minute break?
Thank you
