What's missing
Where the app can't follow a rule to the letter yet, its notes say so, and say how to allow for it when you enter your hours. From this page's agreements:
- The state posts dates, not the agreement's: January 1 2025 is the federal Davis-Bacon step date, and January 1 2026 is inferred from the state's first posting of $50.46 (January 15 2026). The next step isn't published: then type your new rate under Enter my own rate.
- The weekly threshold, 4×10 rules and shifts aren't published; the app pays time and a half past 8 hours a day and past 40 in the week (32 in a week with a holiday on a workday), on a 5×8 week only. Enter the hours you're paid for.
- The lodge's own list isn't published: the app pays nothing for a holiday you don't work and leaves a Saturday holiday on the Saturday.
- The state's schedule shows no vacation contribution (the new agreement's tiered vacation option isn't published), and subsistence, travel and shift premiums aren't published, so the app takes no vacation off and adds none of them (ticking Night changes nothing).
Enter your own hours in the Boilermaker app: it applies these rates, the overtime and holiday rules, dues and tax, and keeps a year of paychecks. Free for a month.
