# Exclude Employee Break on a Certain Day


${youtube}[Employee Breaks](cgpb3iLetMQ)

Within TimeKeeper, you can enable rules to automatically deduct Day Breaks or Flexi Breaks depending on the hours your employee is clocked in for.

However there are circumstances where on a certain day, an employee may work to a different time so some employee breaks might apply to only certain days.

If you want to exclude an employee break from a certain day, just click the day to exclude under the 'Don't Apply Break on These Days' header as shown below.

In this example, the break at 12:00PM for 1 hour will not be applied when employees work on a Saturday or Sunday.

This feature is accessible when setting up either an individual employee's working pattern, or a reusable working pattern.
