Maximum Weekly Hours
The Maximum Weekly Hours constraint is meant to limit how much an employee may work in a week — for example the 48-hour average of the EU Working Time Directive.
This constraint is not enforced yet. You can add it to a work time policy and save its setting, but mTime does not check any week against it: no warning appears on the timesheet and submission is never blocked. Do not rely on it to monitor weekly working time.
When to use
For now, only to record the intended limit on the policy.
Parameters
| Parameter | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Maximum Minutes | The most worked time allowed in one week, in minutes (2880 = 48 hours). Must be at least 1. | Required |
Examples
EU 48-hour week
- Add the Maximum Weekly Hours plugin to the policy

to
2880
The setting is saved, but it has no effect until the check is released.
