Staff scheduling software in Hay River
Rosters for Hay River's transportation and barging, fishing and public administration — shifts, a time clock and approved hours in one place. Overtime after 8 hours in a day or after 40 hours in a week, worked out before the hours reach payroll.
Shifts in Hay River
How Hay River staff actually get rostered
In a town of about 3,600 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.
Seasonal crews arrive together and leave together, and the work follows the weather rather than the calendar. That means a roster rebuilt at short notice and hours recorded accurately on the day, because nobody reconstructs a picking week from memory.
And the local shape of it: the barging season sets the working year, and much of the local hiring happens inside it — 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 Northwest Territories.
The clock in Hay River
What time the time clock keeps
Hay River keeps Mountain 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 Northwest Territories, and across provinces if you roster in more than one.
Set by the province, not the city
When overtime starts for Hay River staff
Northwest Territories pays overtime after 8 hours in a day as well as on the week, so a single long shift in Hay River earns it on its own — BooksAuto checks both while you are still building the schedule. The threshold is provincial and the full rules are on the Northwest Territories scheduling page.
