You can see this change reflected in the "Casual shiftwork" and "Casual daywork" rule sets. Please note that the change comes into effect on the first full pay period on or after 1st October 2018.

  2. Any time worked before the start times on Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Sunday we will deem overtime; and

The rule only works where Advanced Standard Work Hours have been set up using start and finish times, not hours only.
