EmpCenter Multiple Assignments

Certain organizations place employees into multiple, concurrent positions. For example, a police officer may also have a part-time job with the Parks and Recreation department coaching Little League baseball, or a student tutor may also work for the school library. Each of these departments—Police, Parks and Recreation, Student Services, University Library—operate as a completely independent entity with separate pay rules, workflows, and approval procedures. The parent organization, though, is still on the hook for regulatory compliance. That is where EmpCenter’s Multiple Assignments shines.

Multiple Assignments is the ideal solution for environments where employees can hold more than one position at any given time. It is particularly suited for industries such as K-12 Schools, Higher Education and Universities, Hospitals and Health Care, Public Sector, and Staffing Firms.

Multiple Assignments creates and processes a separate timesheet for each position held by an employee. EmpCenter remembers the timesheets belong to the same employee and processes all cross-timesheet calculations effortlessly. The result is compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act and other requirements on employee pay and accruals without the need for custom programming or awkward workarounds.

Key Benefits of Multiple Assignments

• Supports employees holding multiple job positions simultaneously
• Allows each position to have a different pay rate, pay rules, and time collection method
• Allows each position to have a different supervisor or approval process
• Data collection devices are aware of the multiple positions and prompt to collect information for the correct one
• Initiates a separate workflow for each timesheet to ensure they are sent to the appropriate supervisor for review and approval
• Supports the option for a supervisor of one timesheet to selectively look at other timesheets or the calculations from other timesheets
