Glossary
A grace period is the tolerance granted at the start of a shift, written in minutes. A clock-in inside the window is not counted as late; one outside it is.
Without a defined tolerance, every late arrival is negotiated individually — and negotiated differently by different managers. A grace period moves the conversation from the person to the rule.
A grace period is not permission to be late; it is an acknowledgement that clocks, traffic and queues exist. Set too wide it stops measuring anything; set to zero it generates noise rather than information.
In easyPDKS
In easyPDKS grace is part of the shift definition, so a morning shift and a night shift can carry different tolerances. Lateness can also be routed to Telegram, e-mail or SMS.
