## Where your team takes breaks, and who sees it

<details>

<summary>Does my team clock out to take a break?</summary>



No. Take a Break stops their worked hours and Resume Work starts them again, in the same desktop app.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What if someone walks away without pressing Take a Break?</summary>



Set the minutes without activity that count as idle, and have a longer idle stretch put the person on break, so the time still leaves their worked hours.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Where does my team clock in?</summary>



On the desktop app for Windows, Mac or Linux, at their own computer.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Who can see my team's data?</summary>



Admins see everyone, each team head their own team, and employees their own timesheets and screenshots when you allow it.
