Common use of Timekeeping Procedures Clause in Contracts

Timekeeping Procedures. 1. A record of regular duty hours and overtime hours worked shall be maintained in accordance with Department procedures. Under no circumstances shall hours worked be recorded or maintained in an informal manner commonly known as white time or in a manner inconsistent with established policies and procedures. To do so is considered misconduct. Any employee maintaining such a system and any employee allowing his or her hours worked to be maintained in an unauthorized manner may be disciplined. 2. All payroll timekeeping for FWS shall be by the “positive” timekeeping method (i.e., hour-for-hour), as set forth in Appendix F. 3. This system shall be used to track all hours worked and leave time, including absence without pay, bereavement, family illness, injury on duty, jury duty, leave without pay, military leave with or without pay, preventive medicine, relief from duty, sick time, suspension, overtime off (one and one-half time), overtime (straight time), vacation, and workers’ compensation. All hours worked, benefit hours and other absences shall be recorded on a daily basis. 4. In the event that leave time, suspensions or other absences result in an employee being absent for a portion of a workday, the employee is obligated to work the remaining portion of his/her workday on that date or another day within the same DP.
