Comply with the 48-hour rule with Intempus
With the Intempus time tracking system, you can always easily see if you're complying with the 48-hour rule.
The 48-hour rule
What is the 48-hour rule all about?
The 48-hour rule is a key part of the new legal requirements for recording working hours.
According to the 48-hour rule, all employees may not work more than 48 hours over a seven-day period averaged over a four-month period - including overtime. Periods of paid holidays and periods of sick leave are not included in the calculation of the average. The rule is designed to ensure orderly conditions for employees.
What if the rule is broken?
It is the employer's responsibility to ensure compliance with the rule. If the rule is violated, it means that the employee is entitled to compensation from the employer, which is typically between DKK 25,000-50,000. - regardless of whether the employee had a desire to work overtime.
Only a few employees are exempt from the rule. Read more here:

The app will notify you, if the rule is violated
In the Intempus app, employees can always see the average of their weekly working hours and be informed if their reported work exceeds the 48-hour rule.
Here they will also be informed for which period the rule has been violated.
Keep an overview of all alerts
In the Intempus administration system, the administrator can get an overview of whether the employee's reported hours are within the 48-hour rule. That is, whether they work more than 48 hours on average over a seven-day period over a four-month period.
As shown in the image, the alerts that contribute to the rule being exceeded will be highlighted in red.
Visualise the data with Microsoft Power BI
With an integration to Microsoft Power BI, you can visualise your employees' reported work. This means that administrators would always be able to gain insight into each employee's average number of working hours per week and how many they have left before the 48-hour rule is exceeded.
