Rest Day Compliance Checker

Check a single employee's week for the basics — general guidance, not legal advice. See the full Rest Day Requirements guide for the shift-worker-specific rules and the roster record-keeping requirement.

Tick each day this employee is scheduled to work

1 rest day scheduled this week

This meets the minimum one rest day per week requirement.

This pattern has 6 consecutive working days. Even when technically compliant, long stretches without a break increase fatigue and error risk — consider spacing the rest day more evenly if this repeats week to week.

Never publish a non-compliant roster again.

ShiftMate checks rest days automatically as it builds the schedule.
