Attract & Retain Top Talent with a 9/80 Work Week

Embrace modern work schedules without the compliance risks. CEM’s 9/80 Payroll Software streamlines the complexities of a 4+4 work schedule, saving you time and eliminating errors.

In today’s competitive landscape, offering flexible work arrangements is a powerful tool for recruitment and retention. The 9/80 schedule, which offers employees a three-day weekend every other week, is a popular choice for boosting morale and preventing burnout. But this popular perk comes with a host of administrative challenges.

Certified Payroll Reporting
Do These 9/80 Payroll Challenges Sound Familiar?
Compliance Nightmares

The unique structure of the 9/80 schedule can create overtime and compliance issues with the Department of Labor's Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) if not handled correctly.

Time-Consuming Manual Entry

Manually tracking and calculating pay for a 9/80 schedule is a recipe for errors and wasted hours.

Inaccurate Time Tracking

Standard timekeeping systems often struggle to accommodate the split-day structure of the 9/80 workweek, leading to inaccuracies and payroll disputes.

Complex Leave Management

Calculating sick leave and PTO for 9-hour versus 8-hour days adds another layer of complexity.

Security Risks:

Managing sensitive payroll data across multiple spreadsheets and manual processes can expose your business to unnecessary risks.

Is Your Payroll System Ready for the 9/80 Challenge?

The appeal of a 9/80 schedule is often overshadowed by payroll complexities that standard systems can’t handle. Its unique structure creates significant compliance risks, particularly with Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime rules, exposing your business to costly penalties. This forces your team into a cycle of manual, error-prone spreadsheet calculations, which inevitably leads to inaccurate time tracking and employee payroll disputes. Simple tasks like managing sick leave and PTO can become logistical nightmares as you struggle to account for 8-hour versus 9-hour days.

Without a dedicated solution, you’re left with an inefficient and insecure process that undermines the very benefits the schedule is meant to provide.
