Choose the most used meal compensation in your location

It happens, you can have more than one type of meal compensation in your location.

In this case, we advise you to select the most recurring one ! You can still edit in the shift as need be ! 💡

Head to Settings > Locations & Schedules > your location > Labour settings :

  • Choose one of 4 types of meal compensation :

    • Meal allowance : Meals taken on site at a flat discounted rate.
      In catering, this is equivalent to a meal allowance (for the meal not taken, you get financial compensation)

    • Benefit in kind : Free meal taken on site

    • Restaurant voucher : Known as lunch voucher

    • Baskets allowance: Financial allowance for a meal taken outside


How to always add a meal when creating a shift ?

Head to Settings > Preferences :

  • Check the "By default add a meal per shift"

  • Save

And sorted ! 🎉
