L&S University Staff Time Reporting
This document provides information on the College of Letters & Science policy for University Staff time reporting.
ALL UNIVERSITY STAFF NEED TO COMPLETE TIMESHEETS, this includes exempt University Staff such as supervisory department administrators. Sample email communication, job aids, and other materials relevant to Employee and Manager Self-Service for hours worked and leave taken reporting can be found on our L&S Employee and Manager Self Service for Hours Worked and Leave Time Taken Reporting KnowledgeBase.
Exempt Employees (this includes supervisors and managers) need only complete their total number of hours worked per week along with any leave time taken in the week. Exempt employees are salaried employees so they should NOT indicate their begin and end times. As salaried employees, they are compensated based on their total job responsibilities, not the number of hours they work. Therefore, exempt employees do not receive additional compensation for hours worked in excess of 40 hours a week except in rare circumstances.
Non-exempt Employees need to complete the timesheet with actual hours worked. They need to record their begin time, lunch time, end time, and leave time taken each week. Non-exempt employees are covered by the Fair Labor Standard Act (FLSA), therefore, are compensated for overtime. They are also eligible for weekend and night differential and premium pay for working on a holiday. It is important that their time report accurately reflects their hours worked. All overtime and work on a holiday must receive prior approval by their supervisor.
Payroll staff should not payroll any University Staff or Temporary Employees (TE) unless they have approval from the employee's supervisor.
If you have questions on this policy, please contact your HR Business Partner.
