Set hourly rates in Zoho Shifts

Set hourly rates

Add hourly rates for employees and keep labor cost visible across scheduling and time tracking. In Zoho Shifts, you can set default hourly rates and position-specific rates for employees.

How hourly rates work

You can add two types of hourly rates for an employee: a default hourly rate and a position rate.
The default hourly rate is the primary wage that applies regardless of the position an employee works. When employees work on a specific shift position, the wage rates are calculated based on the set position's hourly rate.
Notes
For both the default and position rate, you can set the effective date to control when employee pay revisions occur across different cycles.

To add a default hourly rate

Use a default hourly rate when an employee is paid the same amount across all positions.
  1. Go to the Employees tab.
  2. Click More Actions (•••) next to the employee and select Edit.
  3. Open the Wages tab.
  4. Click + Add Default Rate.
  5. Enter the Hourly Rate.
  6. Select the Specific date and set the date from which the hourly rate should apply onwards.
  7. Click Save.

To add hourly rate by position

Use position-based rates when an employee earns different pay for different roles.
  1. Go to the Employees tab.
  2. Click More Actions (•••) next to the employee and select Edit.
  3. Open the Wages tab.
  4. Click + Add Position Rate.
  5. Select the Position and enter the Hourly Rate.
  6. Select the Specific date and set the date from which the hourly rate should apply onwards.
  7. Click Save.
