40 hours a week and need to know
what constitutes overtime where you
are," Bray says.
Leverage technology

As humans are prone to error and
lapses in judgment, particularly so
when faced with stress-inducing
operational burdens, Bray suggests
removing humans from the equation
and automating the process as much
as possible.
Workforce management technology
like Deputy, for instance, alerts management when an employee is nearing
certain work-hour thresholds or can
exclude a manager from scheduling an
employee beyond established norms.
It can also ensure employees are
paid for every hour they work, while
delivering accuracy to employers with
capabilities such as facial recognition.
"The right technology makes life
easier while also helping protect companies from common issues like fraud
or, worse, accusations of mismanagement of workers' time that could
lead to a lawsuit," says James Walker,
president of the Americas at Deputy.

Transparency

Transparency is another powerful tool
to minimize trouble.
Employees, Bray says, should always
have access to their timesheet and know
what's being sent to payroll, while employers, Jeang adds, should be connected
to their accountant to ensure taxes are
being addressed as necessary.
With an employee handbook clearly
defining store policies, operators can

then reinforce key messages in plain
view. For example, signage in an
employee common area that reminds
employees to take a break or a schedule
detailing when employees might have a
meal break. n
Chicago-based writer DANIEL P. SMITH has
covered business issues and best practices for
a variety of trade publications, newspapers,
and magazines.

The right documentation

Reliable documentation helps mitigate litigation.
When hiring, require completed
W-4 and I-9 forms as well as two
pieces of identification. Then, create an employee personnel file that
includes these forms as well as copies
of the identification the new employee
supplied.
"Have a system of check and balances to make sure people are eligible
to work," Bray says.
An employee handbook, meanwhile,
is another tangible ally, particularly so
when it states policies around breaks,
meals, overtime, certifications and
other pertinent employment issues.
Employees should sign and acknowledge receipt of the handbook.
"This helps to keep boundaries from
being blurred," Jeang says.
