This report was presented just a month after the new regulations that require all hours worked by a company's staff to be recorded and kept for 4 years came into force. This is intended to avoid revenue losses of almost 167 million euros in Catalonia in 2018, as a result of all the overtime that has not been counted and therefore has not been paid or declared.
The issue of overtime is something that is constantly controversial, since for many companies in the Spanish State it has been a common practice not to record all the overtime hours worked by the company staff, especially in cases of office work, or also in cases such as staff who have to travel, or who work outside the workplace.
With the new regulations, all the hours worked in companies must be recorded every day, including overtime. With time management systems like Timenet this task is simplified, as it is an easy way to register the entries and exits of each person, including those who work outside the center, all that is needed is a device with an internet connection.
Having to account for these overtime hours will be a huge benefit for the business workforce, since ultimately all the hours worked will be accounted for and paid, and also for the public administration which with this system will avoid millions in revenue losses.
