- 14:30After the lunch service, the service team clocks out for the split shift break.
- 17:30Back for the evening: clock in again. The split shift is recorded cleanly in two blocks.
- 23:15The temporary helper clocks out after the last table. Her hours appear in the monthly total straight away.
- Month-endYou see overtime and holiday balance per person and pass the monthly reports to payroll as PDFs.
What applies in hospitality
The hospitality industry is covered by the generally binding national collective labour agreement (L-GAV). It requires working time to be monitored and regulates working hours and rest days.
L-GAV for the hospitality industry
The employer must monitor and record working time. If there is no such record, the employees' own notes can serve as evidence in a dispute. Proper recording therefore protects the business above all.
Working hours and rest days
The L-GAV sets the average weekly working time depending on the type of business, as well as the rest days. With the flexitime and holiday balances, you can see at any time whether someone has worked too much or too little.
Split shift breaks (Zimmerstunde) and split shifts
With split shifts, it must be clear what is working time and what is free time. If staff clock out for the split shift break and clock back in afterwards, you get clear billing at month-end instead of discussions.
A brief overview, not legal advice. The Labour Act and the collective labour agreement that applies to your business are authoritative.
