In Mexico, the Federal Labor Law states that overtime is paid at least double, or triple, the regular pay rate when certain conditions are met. This integration calculates the appropriate overtime, and then displays the hours on the Totals tab in the Timecard.

The number of regular hours depends on the shift type. Mexico Federal Labor Law sets limits on daily durations as follows:

  • Daytime Shift: Eight hours per shift — 48 hours a week.

  • Night Shift: Seven hours per shift — 42 hours a week.

  • Mixed shift: Seven and a half hours per shift — 45 hours a week.

Three conditions determine the overtime calculation.

  • Condition 1: On a daily basis, the first 3 hours of overtime are considered double overtime hours; overtime hour in excess of 3 is considered triple overtime.

  • Condition 2: On a weekly basis, the first 9 hours of overtime are considered double overtime hours. Every overtime hour in excess of 9 is considered triple overtime.

  • Condition 3: On a weekly basis, if there are 3 occurrences of overtime, every additional overtime hour is considered triple overtime, regardless of daily or weekly limits.

Note: customers can choose to configure the integration using a combination of all three conditions or conditions 1 and 2, only.

This extension:

Double and triple overtime hours are calculated for weekly periods, even when larger date ranges are supplied by the user. Partial week processing is allowed, provided that the date range includes the start of the week.
