In general, staff aren't required to be paid for commuting to work and back home. In pet sitting, "commuting" is the equivalent to their journey "to" their first service of the day and journeying home "from" their last service. In this case, you would exclude their travel time from being added to their paid work.
Tip: Although it may not be required, you may choose to pay your staff for ALL their travel time, in which case you would ensure this setting was switched OFF.
How Do I Exclude Travel Time to First and From Last Service?
Navigation: Admin > Timecard Settings
- Toggle "Exclude travel time to first and from last service" ON.
- Click "Update."
