Certifications

Some jobs require statutory certifications that allow employees to work in certain functions. Most certifications expire and must be renewed. If a job is configured for active certification, any employee that is not certified for that job will not be scheduled via auto scheduler or manually. 

More information

• Time Clocks will not allow uncertified employees to log in to a job requiring certification. If an employee is not currently certified for a job they are trying to punch in for, a message is displayed and the employee is immediately logged out and returned to the login screen. If a certification expires while an employee is punched in, the manager will have to punch out for the employee.
• When adding certification for an employee, all active certifications for all properties in which the employee has an active job, are identified by appending the property code to the name. In secondary properties, property codes are prepended to the name for certifications not in the current property. Edits and deletes for non-current property certifications are disallowed. You can only add current property certifications.
• Time Clocks will only check time clock property jobs for invalid certifications.
• Jobs that have invalid certifications in other properties will not be auto scheduled.
• Secondary jobs in a property cannot be manually scheduled a if there are invalid certifications.
