Planned Overtime Request

Planned Overtime exclusively serves the purpose of enabling Heads of Departments (HODs) or Supervisors to schedule overtime for their team members when additional staffing is required. Unlike Self-Overtime, employees do not have the capability to initiate Planned Overtime requests on their own

OT Hours Requested is the accumulation of the overtime hours from each selected employee.
