You need Time permission to view and edit the roster and Salary permission to be able to view payrates. If you don't have access to this module, ask someone with Managers permission to update your user permissions.
You need to setup your staff roles and staff before you are able to roster in Loaded.
Breaks can be set to be unpaid or paid so that your labour cost is accurate to the pay you actually expect to pay each team member.
Rostering your breaks helps you stay compliant with labour legislation, ensures you're rostering an accurate labour cost, and gives your shift managers a clear indication of when they should be aiming to send their team on both paid and unpaid breaks.

How do breaks calculate in your labour costs
The cost and time of paid breaks are included in Labour reports in both the dollar value calculations and the hours worked.
The cost and time of unpaid breaks are not included in Labour report totals, both for dollar value calculations and hours worked.
E.g. a staff member completes an 8 hour shift with a 30-min unpaid break, and 15-min paid break, with a base rate of $25/hour. That will be reported as a 7.5 hour shift, costing $187.50 - it includes the time and cost of the 15min paid break, but not the time and cost of the 30-min unpaid break.
