- Legal minimums for all 13 provinces and territories and federal employers, with the section of the law cited
- Statutory holidays of each person’s province or territory
- Balances calculated automatically, following each leave type’s rules
- Approval by the manager; nobody approves their own request
- Timesheets submitted, then approved by the manager
- Clock in, breaks and clock out, at server time, if the organization turns it on
- Time clock limited to the office network or a front desk tablet, as the organization chooses
- Overtime flagged using the thresholds of the jurisdiction
Frequently asked questions
Are my province’s leave rules already in place?
Yes. The legal minimums for all 13 provinces and territories and federal employers are taken from the law, with the section cited. You create your own leave types, and Samwell flags any gap with the legal minimum.
Is the time clock mandatory?
No. It is off by default: the organization turns it on if needed. Timesheets work without it.
Does the time clock use geolocation?
No, no geolocation at all. To prevent abuse, the organization can require the office network or a front desk tablet.
Do approved hours go to payroll?
Yes. Payroll reads the hours from approved timesheets: nothing is entered twice.
