How to take breaks during shifts on Guard Web Portal?

As important as it is to efficiently manage the guard hours on the client site, it is vital that the guards have adequate breaks to keep up the level of productivity and perform with full vitality.

While defining break types, the admin can set a particular break to

• Automatically start or
• Allow the guard to start the break manually

Automatic breaks:

When the admin chooses to set AutoStart for a break, the break will automatically start and end at the defined time.

Manual breaks:

When the guard has the option to manually start and end a break, he can do so anytime he wants, in a few simple steps:

1. Starting a break:
After you've clocked-in to the shift and checked-in to a post site, click on the clock-in option on the top left corner of the Dashboard and hit Take Break. Now all you need to do is select the break type and then hit Start Break. You'll see a timer start for the break.

2. Ending a break:
If the admin allows you can end the break on your own, otherwise the break ends only after the duration specified by the admin.

If the admin allows, you can end the break as you wish and it is not compulsory to take the full duration as is defined. To end the break, you need to follow the same process- click on the clock-in button and hit End Break, add notes (if needed) and end the break. That's it.
