+# Project Plan: Remove Attendance Policies
+
+## 1. Context & Objective
+The user wants to remove the entire `attendance_policies` feature from the HR system. Currently, the system relies on attendance policies to determine grace periods (late arrival, early departure) and an explicit overtime rate. 
+
+We have verified that:
+1. Overtime rate calculation is already safely hardcoded in `PayrollService.php` (`$hourlyRate * 1.25` or `1.30`).
+2. Therefore, the dynamic `overtime_rate_per_hour` in the policy is redundant.
+3. The late arrival and early departure grace periods should be hardcoded to exactly `15` minutes instead.
+
+The goal is to safely remove all frontend and backend references to attendance policies, making the system simpler and preventing clock-in errors.
+
+## 2. Task Breakdown
+
+### A. Backend Cleanup
+- **Controllers:**
+  - `AttendanceRecordController.php`: Remove all queries and dependency checks for `$policy`.
+  - `EmployeeController.php`: Remove `attendance_policy_id` validation and auto-assignment logic we just added. Remove from `store` and `update`.
+  - `AttendancePolicyController.php`: Delete this controller entirely.
+- **Models:**
+  - `AttendanceRecord.php`: In `checkLateArrival()` and `checkEarlyDeparture()`, hardcode the grace periods to `15` minutes instead of fetching from `$this->attendancePolicy->late_arrival_grace`.
+  - `Employee.php`: Remove the `attendancePolicy` relationship.
+  - `AttendancePolicy.php`: Delete this model entirely.
+- **Database / Migrations:**
+  - Create a migration to drop the `attendance_policies` table.
+  - Create a migration to drop `attendance_policy_id` from `employees` and `attendance_records` tables.
+
+### B. Frontend Cleanup
+- **Pages & Components:**
+  - Delete `resources/js/pages/hr/attendance-policies/` directory.
+  - Remove the Attendance Policies tab/link from `resources/js/layouts/hr-layout.tsx` or `sidebar.tsx` components.
+  - `resources/js/pages/hr/employees/create.tsx` & `edit.tsx`: Completely remove the "Attendance Policy" dropdown field.
+  - Remove from any employee view tables if displayed.
+- **Routes:**
+  - In `routes/web.php` or `routes/hr.php`: Remove all routes related to `AttendancePolicyController`.
+
+## 3. Verification Checklist
+- [ ] Employees can still clock in and out without errors.
+- [ ] Late arrivals are correctly flagged only after 15 minutes past shift start time.
+- [ ] Early departures are flagged if clocked out more than 15 minutes before shift end time.
+- [ ] Employee create/edit works flawlessly without the Attendance Policy dropdown.
+- [ ] The HR dashboard navigation does not show "Attendance Policies".
+- [ ] Payroll generation still correctly calculates Overtime via `PayrollService.php`.
+
+## 4. Agent Assignments
+- **`backend-specialist`**: Handles PHP controllers, models, and migrations.
+- **`frontend-specialist`**: Removes React components, form fields, and navigation links.
+
+*Run `/create` to begin execution of this plan.*
