Time Cards
Time cards are official documents. When completing them the following guidelines should be used:
1. Record all hours for which compensation is to be received.
2. Record hours in quarter-hour increments using decimal form rather than fractions (i.e., .25, .50, .75).
3. The employee and supervisor must both approve the time card. Supervisors should not approve a blank or incomplete time card.
4. Submit time cards to the payroll office by the due date specified in the biweekly pay schedule distributed by that department. The payroll manager will send an e-mail message if time cards are due earlier than specified in the schedule.
