What should the working day record include?

The record of workers' working hours, mandatory since May 12, must include all working hours of the day, marking the start and end, but any incidents must also be recorded, such as mandatory breaks that drivers must take, or breaks established by agreement, such as lunches, as well as voluntary breaks, such as going to smoke a cigarette.

This registration can be done manually, computerized and technologically, the point is that the company must keep these records for 4 years in its own facilities, and in the event of an inspection it should present them immediately to avoid possible manipulation, otherwise it could face fines ranging from €625 to €6,250, these fines would be applied per company, not per worker.

It should be noted that the penalties for these types of infractions can be repeated as many times as necessary, since the law does not establish a minimum time between inspections, therefore it is very important for companies to be up to date in terms of recording working hours.

The objectives of this new regulation are twofold:

1.- To know the overtime hours of workers

2.- To avoid false part-time contracts

This new development can cause real headaches for many companies, but there are very effective solutions such as Timenet, which is a really easy-to-use and economical system that allows this control of working hours to be carried out properly, including all possible breaks or incidents as stipulated by law.
