Managing overtime has always been one of the trickiest parts of HR — from tracking different OT types to calculating rates for weekends, rest days, or public holidays. Add in last-minute requests and approval delays, and it becomes a workflow that easily gets messy, inconsistent, or non-compliant.
That’s exactly why modern HR teams are turning to smart overtime management systems that automate the entire process. And if your company is still relying on manual forms or WhatsApp messages for OT, it may be time for an upgrade.
Why Overtime Management Matters More Than You Think
Overtime isn’t just about paying employees extra. It affects:
- Payroll accuracy
- Legal compliance
- Workforce planning
- Employee morale
- Cost control
A single miscalculation can lead to underpayment, disputes, or penalties. On the other hand, consistent and clear OT management can boost trust and operational efficiency.
