Shifts in Edmundston
How Edmundston staff actually get rostered
In a town of about 16,600 the roster is usually a handful of people covering between them, and everybody knows everybody. What still goes wrong is the record: who actually worked, when, and whether the hours that reached payroll were the hours worked.
Mill work runs continuous crews on a rotation, and the forest end of it is weather-dependent and seasonal. One business can therefore have two quite different rosters — one that never stops and one that stops every winter — and both have to land on the same timesheet.
And the local shape of it: a mill town on the Quebec border, almost entirely francophone, and a mill means continuous shifts — which is what the roster has to bend around.
Build the week by dragging shifts, and staff see it on their phones as soon as you publish. They punch in on a tablet by the door or on their own phone, and late starts, missed breaks, a shift nobody clocked out of and anyone working unscheduled are flagged for a manager rather than quietly corrected. Breaks run to 30 minutes after five hours in New Brunswick.
The clock in Edmundston
What time the time clock keeps
Edmundston keeps Atlantic time.
Every punch is recorded against the local time it happened and the real elapsed hours are counted, so the two weekends a year when the clocks change do not need correcting by hand. How that works across New Brunswick, and across provinces if you roster in more than one.
Set by the province, not the city
When overtime starts for Edmundston staff
New Brunswick works overtime out on the week, so the risk in Edmundston is the mid-week change: adding a shift can push hours already worked over the line. BooksAuto shows the running weekly total as you build. The threshold is provincial and the full rules are on the New Brunswick scheduling page.
