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 2025 step starts on the date Nevada's book does (October 1 2025), the agreement's own 2025 date isn't published, and Nevada's October 1 2026 book has no new raise, so the app keeps these rates after it.
Only that starting step is in the app ($20.52 from July 1 2026, worked out and rounded to the cent); the later steps aren't published: use Enter my own rate.
The app doesn't know the clock, so hours before 4:30 a.m. (concrete pour crews may start between 2:00 and 5:00 a.m.) are paid only as the day's hours past 8 are; five 8-hour days only, and there's no make-up day.
What happens to a Saturday holiday isn't published, so the app keeps it on the Saturday (Independence Day 2026 on Saturday July 4, double time if worked), and whether unworked holidays are paid isn't published either: the app pays nothing for them.
The book says overtime is calculated on the base rate, so the app pays zone pay once on every hour worked, not multiplied.
Local 872's dues and other check-offs aren't published. The app takes 4.6% of gross wages, the highest flat working-dues percentage in the laborer agreements this app has (Kansas City heavy's supplemental dues), so your take-home here is on the low side: type your local's % on the Settings tab (0 if it takes none). Whether part of the fringe is a vacation fund taken from your check isn't published either.
Shift premiums, show-up pay and meal rules aren't published, so the app adds nothing for a night shift or a missed meal.
