Timekeeping/Time Records

1.88 Timekeeping/Time Records

Effective Date:

For non-exempt employees, laws and regulations today are very strict about recording the exact number of hours you work. It is our responsibility to keep accurate records. Additionally, keeping accurate time records provides us with a permanent record of time for computing your earnings.

Certain classifications of employees may be required to keep time records by punching a timecard or otherwise recording their attendance on an approved time sheet, and this must be done on a daily basis reflecting the actual time you commence work and finish at the end of each day. If you leave the premises, and you are not on Agency business, you are required to record the time you leave and return by recording in the specified manner.

If you forget to record such absences, or if there is an error made on your time record, please notify your supervisor immediately. Your supervisor will make the necessary correction and both of you will initial the correction.

No non-exempt employee is to work while clocked out for lunch if required to do so. Additionally, non-exempt employees are not to work any overtime unless authorized by their supervisor. Altering, falsifying, tampering with timecards, or recording time on another employee's timecard may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.
