Hello all,

I have a question on how overtime is handled from a Project Profitability perspective.

In general, we don’t pay overtime to employees, however, as we know our employees often work many hours a day to get the job done. In my
company we have CA/Clarity for time tracking and Oracle Project Accounting.

Time tracking systems normally associate costs for a project on an hourly basis. However, if overtime is worked on project are we
artificially inflating the costs on a project?

I am interested in how other companies handle this. In a small shop, this can be handled manually, however, with a larger organization it
needs to be systematically implemented.

In addition, this also plays into other issues, especially in Europe where we have labor laws and works councils that need to be considered.

Thank you,

Dave J.
