Check Attendance Compliance Weekly | Generated by AI

Home 2026.05

Question: For the punch card attendance rules described, should compliance be checked every 2 weeks?

Answer:

No — you should check every week, not every 2 weeks. Here’s why:

The rules specify two independent thresholds that must both be satisfied:

  1. Weekly threshold — every week, punch days ≥ 60% of that week’s working days (rounded up)
  2. Monthly threshold — by end of month, total punch days ≥ 60% of the month’s working days (rounded up)

If you only check every 2 weeks, you might discover a weekly violation too late to fix it. Weekly violations are independent — a strong week 2 cannot compensate for a failed week 1.


Practical Check Schedule for May 2026

Week Dates Working Days Min Punch Required Check By
W1 May 1 (Labor Day holiday) ~1–2 (complicated) ~1–2 End of that week
W2 May 6–9 4 3 Fri May 9
W3 May 12–16 5 3 Fri May 16
W4 May 19–23 5 3 Fri May 23
W5 May 26–30 5 3 Fri May 30
Monthly total All of May 19 12 May 30

Waiting 2 weeks means a bad week 1 is already locked in by the time you notice — too late to fix the weekly violation even if you fix the monthly total.
