Hi Sir/ Mam,
I am working as an HR in IT Company in Mohali. Present employee strength is 20 .I have a query regarding Extra Working hours in my office. Our office Timings are from 9:00am to 6:30pm. Normally we allow people to reach office by 9:20max. After 9:20am , if a person is coming without informing we mark half day . Recently we have framed a new policy regarding overtime hours for our Team Members. If anyone is working after 7:00pm, we keep a separate record of that many hours daily . If it comes out to be 8 hours after the total addition , we add one leave to his/her account for that particular month. I would like to explain this using an example : if any employee left the office at 8:00pm( 1 hour added ) and the next day she comes at 9:45pm, we deduct that many hours from the previous day hours( means she is late by 25 mins , so subtract 25 mins from the previous day hours and so on...) . However personally I am not convinced regarding this as I feel that we are not able to set a discipline in the office. Earlier we use to reward employee every month with the "Star Performer of the month" award keeping in view his extra working hours as well as other parameters.
I would like you to please guide me regarding this policy. Is it correct ? I would really appreciate if you could suggest me some other alternative .
Looking forward to hear from you soon!!
Thanks and Regards
