How do I request overtime?

Updated today

Veterinarians often go above and beyond to provide exceptional patient care, which sometimes means working past scheduled hours. To ensure you're compensated fairly for your extra time, the overtime request feature allows you to request additional payment for any extra hours worked.

Below, we will guide you through finalizing your shift and requesting overtime payment.

How do I request an overtime payment?

If your actual worked hours exceed your scheduled shift hours, you can request additional payment for overtime. To request an overtime payment, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Schedule page;

  2. Once the shift is completed and requires finalization, it is highlighted with purple on the calendar.

  3. Click on the shift that requires finalization.

  4. Switch the "Do you want to request overtime?" toggle to ON.

  5. Select the number of overtime hours you want to request payment for.

  6. Click the "Finalize" button once ready.

Your overtime payment request will now be sent to the clinic for approval. After the clinic reviews your overtime request and finalizes your shift payment, you will receive an email notification titled "Your Shift is Finalized!" You can navigate to the corresponding shift sidebar from this email to check the payment details. If the clinic approves your overtime request, you will see the overtime pay added to the pay breakdown list at the bottom of the shift sidebar.
