Updated in December - 2025 | Subscribe to watch greytHR how-to video

Assigning overtime policies to employees refers to the process of setting and communicating the rules and guidelines around when and how employees are eligible to work overtime hours, and how they will be compensated for that additional work.

The Assignment page in the greytHR Admin portal allows you to assign overtime policies to your employees. The page also helps you to view the employees assigned to a permission policy through the employee filter.
You can assign the policy based on various categories such as department, designation, and grade. The page displays a list of employees and their information, such as Employee Name, Policy Name, and Future Policy Name.

To view the Assignment page, from the greytHR Admin portal, hover over the 9 dots and go to Employee > Admin > Assignment.

You can perform the following actions on the Assignment page:

  3. View the employees assigned to a permission policy.
