Work Schedule & Timekeeping

Standard hours

Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM (Eastern) are LEO's standard business hours. Work outside that window — nights, weekends, and holidays — is emergency / special hours and is billed to customers at emergency/special rates. The Tech App shows an Emergency / Special hours flag when you clock in outside the standard window. LEO responds 24/7/365, so after-hours work happens; it is scheduled or approved by the office.

Clocking in and out

• Use the LEO Tech App to clock in when you start work on a job and clock out when you stop. The app records time and location.
• Clock in to the correct job (work order). If you change jobs during the day, clock out of the first job and in to the next one.
• Travel and parts runs are recorded the way the office tells you for that job.
• Never clock in or out for someone else, and never ask someone to do it for you.
• Missed or wrong punch: tell the office the same day with the correct times. The office makes the correction — don't leave it for payday.

Meal and rest breaks

Take breaks as the job and client site allow. Unpaid meal breaks are recorded by clocking out and back in.

Overtime

• Hours over 40 in a workweek are paid at 1.5× your regular rate, as required by law.
• Night work is paid at the overtime rate (1.5×), as LEO practice.
• Overtime is scheduled or approved by the office. All hours actually worked are paid — never work "off the clock".

Pay periods and payday

• Pay periods are two weeks long, Monday through Saturday (for example Mon 8/24 – Sat 9/5).
• Payday is the Friday after the pay period closes.
• Pay is processed through Square Payroll with direct deposit. See HR & Payroll.

Attendance

If you will be late or can't make a shift, call the office before your start time — not a text after. Client sites plan around our crew; a no-call/no-show is treated seriously.
