We calculate labour cost for Full-Timers (Monthly wage type) and Part-Timers (Hourly wage type) differently.

Do note that Staff's wage rates should be set up first (under My Team) in order to see the labour cost indication.

Full Timers (Monthly)

Full-timer labour cost is estimated by summing up the cost of basic labour hours + overtime hours

Hour Type

Rate

Cost

Normal hours of work

Estimated Hourly Rate = Monthly Wage * 12 months / 52 weeks / Weekly Overtime Hour Limit

Basic hour

Overtime

Hours of Overtime worked

Overtime Rate

Overtime hour * Overtime Rate

Note:

1 - Normally, Full Timers will be paid their full Monthly wage. To help your team identify and visualize under-utilised labour, the estimated cost is based on the number of hours scheduled; the total estimated cost would be less than their full Monthly wage if you schedule less than their weekly OT limit.

2 - This costing does not take into account statutory payments like FWL or CPF (in Singapore context)

Example

Chow Jia Yi is a Full-Timer (Salaried) and has a salary of $2000 a month, and a weekly OT limit of 40hrs.

Scenario 1 - Jia Yi is scheduled for 7 hours of work in the week

Note:

Overtime cost will also be calculated for Part-Timers if Daily/Weekly Overtime limits and Overtime rates are set up.
