Under the Working Time Regulations 1998, employers must keep records showing workers receive their entitled rest. TimeTally handles this automatically so you don't have to think about it. Use our break time compliance calculator to check your current obligations.
Penalty: Unlimited fines for failing to maintain adequate records. Each affected employee counts as a separate offence.

Meet UK Working Time Regulations automatically. Have timestamped proof that breaks were taken if HMRC or employment tribunals ever ask about labour compliance
Know true labour costs per project when using multi-project tracking. Don't count break time as billable client hours.
An employee who takes two 15-minute breaks shouldn't be paid the same as someone who takes none. Accuracy builds trust.
Detailed records protect you if employees claim they weren't given breaks. Pair with timesheet notes for a complete, defensible audit trail.
The extra break fields are optional. Employees only fill them in when needed. No extra complexity day to day.
Multiple break tracking is included on all plans at just £3/employee/month. Free trial, no credit card required.
