E3.20 Timekeeping

Effective Date: August 30, 2019
Last Reviewed: August 30, 2019


Accurate record keeping is the responsibility of each employee. Federal and State Laws require the College to maintain accurate records of time worked in order to calculate employee pay, withholdings, and benefits. For purposes of this Policy, worked time includes all hours actually spent on the job.

Time records require the approval and sign off of an employee’s supervisor verifying the time as accurate and that accrued balances are sufficient to cover any benefit time appearing on the time record.

Tampering, altering, or falsifying time records or recording time on another employee’s time card is prohibited and may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination.

Employees must follow the timekeeping procedures related to their specific classification. The Office of Human Resources will review this process with new employees during the onboarding process.

The Office of Human Resources shall maintain a record of the individuals authorized to approve.
