2.7.7.1 Purpose
 

    The purpose of this section is to outline the responsibility of every employee for keeping accurate attendance and payroll records.

       2.7.7.2 Policy
 

    All Staff employees must complete a timesheet on a  daily basis, noting actual time in and out for both work and meal periods.  Holidays, vacation, sick time, personal days and other compensable time not worked shall be noted as such on the timesheet.

    For Staff employees, hours reported on timesheets must reflect actual hours worked.  They shall not be "adjusted" to accommodate early or late arrival or departure from work, or manipulated to accommodate compensatory time off ("comp-time").  Accurate recordation of time worked and compensable time not worked is an essential job requirement for all Staff employees.

    In addition, all Staff employees are required to report use of sick pay for five or more consecutive days, bereavement and jury duty on an E.R.C.R. which must be sent to the Department of Human Resources immediately after time off occurs.

    Administrators are not required to complete timesheets.  They are, however, required to report any use of vacation, sick time, bereavement, jury duty and other compensable time not worked on an E.R.C.R.  The E.R.C.R. must be submitted to the Department of Human Resources in advance, when possible, and immediately after time off occurs in all other cases.

    Staff employees working nights are advised that the workday begins at l2:0l a.m. and ends the following midnight.  Those employees reporting to work for a midnight shift must sign in and out on the day the shift ends.  For example, if an employee reports to work at ll:59 p.m., Friday night, and works until 8:30 a.m., Saturday morning, the employee must sign in and out for hours worked as the first shift of Saturday, not the last shift of Friday.
