Individual Working Hours & Part time employees

You can change someone’s working hours in the Person details page → Employment → Add individual working hours-button:

This quite old 2-minute video explains how we handle allocations for anyone with individual working hours:

Some edge cases you want to be aware of:

• If a long work allocation spans over changes in working hours, we strongly recommend splitting the allocation bar at the day of the change. This will make it obvious that there is a sort of a discontinuation point – even if the project work itself stays the same, the % of that person’s week changes and people doing the staffing should take note.

• As of writing (September 2024), we don’t show which days of the week people are working. We recommend using the Note on the individual working hours – it is shown on the edit allocation popover and in the expanded person view on the People Timeline.

If you have any questions or ideas related to managing part-time work more fluently in Operating, we’re open to all suggestions at support@operating.app – thanks in advance!
