Record Consent to Night Work or Overtime

Record that a pregnant worker or new mother agreed to night work or overtime, so the roster's warning clears.

  1. Open the warning on her shift in ConsoleAttendanceRosters, or the Roster panel on her attendance.

  2. Select She has agreed.
  3. Choose what She agreed to: night work, overtime or both.
  4. Choose the date it starts, an end date if there is one, and add a note. Select Save.

While it runs, her shifts show Consent recorded instead of the warning.

Good to Know

  • The Labour Act (s.55) says a pregnant worker isn't assigned night work, and a pregnant worker or mother of a young child isn't given overtime, unless she consents.
  • Agoo works these warnings out only from maternity leave already recorded. It never asks or keeps anything about a pregnancy.
  • Only people who may see her private leave, such as HR, see the consent warnings.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • No warning shows though she's pregnant. No maternity leave is recorded yet, so Agoo has nothing to go on.
  • She changes her mind. End the consent from her Roster panel.
