Multiple employments

This term generally describes a situation in which a person has several employments that run in parallel or one after another.

Most common cases

Marginal employment alongside dormant parental leave

Secondary employment (e.g. marginal, 8 hours per week) while the main employment is dormant (because of maternity leave, paternity leave or parental leave).

Re-entry

An employee re-joins some time after having left. In this case, there are two main employments one after the other.

There is a gap in employment in between, which the person spent elsewhere.

Purpose and benefits

In time management, a full, independent record is kept for each separate employment.

  • The full functionality — records, rule compliance, accounts, calculations & reports, vacation entitlement, balance, approval process, etc. — can be handled completely separately for each employment.
  • But everything is assigned to the same person.
  • In all important Personalwolke Time screens, for both the employee and the HR administrator viewing them, the employment is offered as a sub-selection in addition to the person. You can switch between employments, and the displayed data is updated accordingly.

How do I create an additional employment?

After creating a new person and activating time tracking, we have the following initial state:

Employment: There is currently only one, which is labeled as follows:

  • #1 Primary — The person currently has only one employment (#1), which is primary ("main employment") and active (✅) because the start date is in the past and the end date is open or in the future.
  • #2 Secondary
    • Parental leave is coming up, during which the main employment ("primary") will be paused.
    • In parallel (at least for part of the time), a secondary employment ("secondary") is to take place.
    • The secondary employment alongside the parental leave is then labeled: #2 Secondary.
    • Proceed as follows:
  • Click Actions ⏷ and select "Create new secondary employment".
    • The secondary employment must lie within the period of the primary employment.
    • Set the values of the secondary employment as desired and click Person → Save.
  • From now on, you can use the selection menu under Employment to switch between the person's employments:
    • #1 Primary, #2 Secondary.
