Rest periods
The report shows the daily and weekly rest periods in chronological order, together with the shifts worked between them and the weekly driving times. For each rest period you can see how the app classified it, and icons indicate special cases.
The report can only be opened if, on the Settings page, you have set the Base country value.
Classification of rest periods
If you have rested more than necessary recently, earlier rest periods can be classified in more than one way. That is why, before opening, the app asks what your intention is:
- I still want to work — the classification is made so that you can work for as long as possible now;
- I want to take a rest — the app assumes that your current rest period will be long, and classifies the earlier rest periods so that you can work more later.
In both cases the classification is chosen so as to produce as few and as mild infringements as possible, and to settle your compensation debts as well.
Structure of the list
The list starts with the oldest rest period and consists of four types of cards:
| Card | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Daily rest period (green) | The start and end of the rest period, with its duration in parentheses; below it, its classification. |
| Weekly rest period (orange) | The same, plus the weekly classification, the week the rest period belongs to, and the country where the rest period began (your base country shown in bold). |
| Shift | The start and end of the shift following the rest period, with its duration in parentheses; below it, the driving time (with the longest continuous driving in parentheses), the other work and the availability time. |
| Driving time (week: …) | Appears at a week change: the Weekly and Fortnightly driving time for that week. For the first two weeks of the downloaded data, the fortnightly value is empty because there is not yet enough history for it. |
Tapping the time of the rest period or the icon opens the Activities list at the start of the rest period. Tapping the week number shows the week's start and end dates.
Daily rest period
The classification of the daily rest period can be Regular daily rest period or Reduced daily rest period. After the classification, in parentheses, is how much of the rest period falls within the 24 hours (30 hours for multi-manning) counted from the end of the previous daily rest period — under the rules, this is the part that counts.
- The label of the reduced daily rest period is shown in a distinct colour so that you can count them easily: there can be at most three between two weekly rest periods. The app already evaluates the fourth one as a regular daily rest period (which means an infringement), but its label remains reduced.
- The split (3 + 9 hour) daily rest period and the one spent in multi-manning also get the Regular daily rest period label; the special case is indicated by an icon on the card of the shift preceding the rest period.
Weekly rest period
On the card of the weekly rest period, below the daily classification is the weekly classification: Regular weekly rest period (at least 45 hours) or Reduced weekly rest period. If a long rest period also qualifies as two weekly rest periods, the label is Regular+Reduced weekly rest period or Reduced+Regular weekly rest period.
The Compensation: row appears when the app has used the surplus of the rest period to compensate for an earlier reduced weekly rest period; the value is the time used. This row can also appear for a daily rest period.
Icons
Tapping the icons shows a short explanation. On the cards of the rest periods:
| Icon | Explanation shown in the app | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Compensation is required | You still need to make up the missing part of the reduced weekly rest period. | |
| Compensation has been made: … | The compensation has been made; the time shown is the start of the compensating rest period. | |
| No compensation was made | The compensation deadline has passed. | |
| Extended to regular daily/weekly rest period | The reduced rest period had to be evaluated as regular, because under the rules it could no longer have been reduced there. | |
| Reclassified to reduced daily rest period | The app counted the regular daily rest period as reduced, so that it could use the surplus for compensation. | |
| Accepted as ferry/train | The rest period was interrupted by a ferry or train journey, and the interruption was compliant with the rules. | |
| International reduced weekly rest | Two consecutive reduced weekly rest periods started abroad. | |
| The bus driver option has been used (6 -> 12 days) | The weekly rest period was evaluated under the 12-day rule. | |
| The bus driver option has been used (24 ->25 hours) | The daily rest period was evaluated under the 25-hour rule. |
On the cards of the shifts:
| Icon | Explanation shown in the app | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| There was a 3-hour rest during the shift | The daily rest period following the shift is split (3 + 9 hours). | |
| Accepted as multi-manning | The shift was spent in multi-manning, so the 30-hour rule applies to the daily rest period. | |
| Ignored (invalid or unnecessary) as multi-manning | There was an entry indicating multi-manning in the shift, but the app did not take it into account. | |
| Ignored (invalid or unnecessary) as ferry/train | There was a ferry/train indication near the rest period, but the app did not take it into account. |
Period
In the menu you can choose: Last 7 day, Last 28 day, Last 56 day or Whole period. When opened, the period last selected in the Infringements report applies (by default the last 56 days).
The classification is affected by the Bus driver setting (12-day and 25-hour rule; in that case there is no international reduced weekly rest period), and the value of continuous driving is affected by the Availability can be considered as a break setting. Times are shown according to the time zone selected in Settings. See the Settings page.
