The work schedule checks the legislation before it is saved
Pregnancy, under 18, physician restrictions: visible before the schedule is saved.
The screens in this film were recorded from the Turkish interface of Pulsar HRM.
Schedule Analysis: regulatory check of work schedules
In the Work Schedule (Çalışma Planı), Analyze (Analiz Et) produces a report listing findings on pregnant employees, night work for under-18s, shifts outside the fixed pattern and physician restrictions, by person and by day. Fix (Düzelt) selects the relevant people and days in the grid. On days with a calculated timesheet, a change requires the session PIN. A warning appears when a night shift is selected for a pregnant employee; the employee sees their new shift on their phone.
Work schedule analysis: findings by person and by day
In the Work Schedule (Çalışma Planı), "Analyze" ("Analiz Et") scans the plan; the Analysis Report (Analiz Raporu) lists findings by severity: night work by pregnant, nursing, disabled and under-18 employees, physician restrictions, days outside the rotation or template, and missing work patterns.
Fix: the people and days concerned come preselected
When you press "Fix" ("Düzelt") on a finding, the report shrinks and the relevant employees and days arrive selected in the matrix; the new shift is selected. On a day with a calculated timesheet, saving requires the session PIN.
Compliance alerts for shift scheduling: Legal Regulation Warnings
In the shift change drawer, the moment a night shift is selected for a pregnant employee, the "Night work restriction for pregnant employee" ("Gebe personel gece çalışma kısıtı") warning appears. The warning is not hidden; the decision stays with the user who builds the schedule.
Legal violations panel
The location's open legal scheduling violations are listed in a separate panel; resolved ones are closed.
Labor rules engine: rules, revisions and approval
Country and company policy profiles hold rules for maximum weekly working time, maximum weekly overtime, rest between shifts, the night work window and duration, night work restrictions and the mandatory weekly rest day. Legal rules are read-only and the company adds stricter rules; a change goes for approval as a revision, the change comparison is reviewed and the change is put into effect. For a rule that raises a warning, the manager's informed decision is recorded.
Schedule changes go to the employee's phone
After saving, a "Work schedule updated" ("Çalışma planı güncellendi") notification is sent to the employee; the new shift appears in My Work Schedule (Çalışma Planım) on their phone.
How it works
- In Work Schedule (Çalışma Planı), you open the month and department; a badge appears next to the names of pregnant, breastfeeding, disabled and under-18 employees.
- You click "Analyze" ("Analiz Et"); the Analysis Report (Analiz Raporu) lists findings by person and day, with severity levels.
- You press "Fix" ("Düzelt") on a finding; the relevant person and days are selected in the grid.
- In the selected cells, you choose the new shift with "Change Free Shift" ("Serbest Vardiya Değiştir"); if a timesheet has already been calculated, saving requires a PIN.
- After saving, a "Work schedule updated" ("Çalışma planı güncellendi") notification is sent to the employee; the new shift appears in My Work Schedule (Çalışma Planım) on their phone.
Frequently asked questions
Does the work schedule flag shifts that break labor law before saving?
Yes. "Analyze" ("Analiz Et") scans the schedule and reports findings by person and day, such as night shifts for pregnant and under-18 employees, shifts outside a fixed pattern and physician restrictions.
Is there a warning when pregnant workers are assigned night work?
Yes. As soon as a night shift is selected in the shift change drawer, "Night work restriction for pregnant employee" ("Gebe personel gece çalışma kısıtı") appears in the "Legal Compliance Warnings" ("Yasal Mevzuat Uyarıları") box. The warning is not hidden; the decision stays with the user making the schedule.
Can a day with a calculated timesheet be changed later?
Yes, but on days with a calculated timesheet, a warning appears before saving and the change is confirmed by entering the session PIN; the related timesheet is recalculated.
What are the maximum working hours per week under İş Kanunu (Turkish Labor Law)?
Under Article 63 of the İş Kanunu No. 4857 (Turkish Labor Act), working time is generally a maximum of 45 hours per week. The Pulsar HRM policy engine holds this rule as a read-only legal rule and generates a limit warning on overtime requests.
When does night work start under İş Kanunu (Turkish Labor Law)?
Under Article 69 of the İş Kanunu No. 4857 (Turkish Labor Act), the night period is the period starting at 20:00 at the latest and lasting until 06:00 at the earliest. The Pulsar HRM timesheet separates night work according to this window, and the policy engine holds the night work rules.
How many hours of rest should there be between two shifts?
In Pulsar HRM, the rest period between shifts is held as a rule in the policy profile; legal rules are read-only, and the company can add a stricter rule. Schedule changes are evaluated against this rule and a warning is returned.
Can work be scheduled without a weekly rest period?
The policy engine holds the mandatory weekly rest day rule; schedule changes are evaluated against this rule and a warning is returned per person. The warning does not block saving, and the manager's informed decision is recorded.
How to check Turkish labor law compliance?
In Pulsar HRM, the schedule is evaluated against the policy rules with "Analyze" ("Analiz Et"), and overtime requests are evaluated during saving; warnings are shown per person, legal violations stay open in the panel, and the manager's informed decision is recorded.
