Timekeeping An accurate record of hours worked and any leave time used by nonexempt employees is necessary to comply with the provisions of the federal and state Fair Labor Standards Acts. The City of Elk River utilizes a schedule-based electronic timekeeping system. Employee work schedules are set by supervisors before each work period. Any deviation to an employee's work schedule shall be immediately updated in the timekeeping system. It is the employee's responsibility to ensure their time records are maintained accurately. Time off and overtime requests shall be made by the employee through the timekeeping system and shall be approved or denied by the supervisor through the timekeeping system. Requested leave (vacation or compensatory time) must be submitted to supervisors through the timekeeping system with as much advance notice as possible. Leave requests are not final until approved by the supervisor in the timekeeping system. Employees are provided secure access to their time records and shall not share their password with co- workers. The hours reflected in the timekeeping system are the hours employees will be paid for each pay period. It is the employee's responsibility to monitor their hours to ensure they accurately reflect the hours worked. If the employee feels there is a discrepancy,it is their responsibility to bring it to the attention of their supervisor. Supervisors are responsible to ensure employees are maintaining their time records accurately. Exempt employees are required to request leave time off through the timekeeping system and ensure their time records are accurate. Your finalized work schedule and approved exceptions signifies physical approval of your time record per FLSA and state statutes. Reporting false information is a crime and shall result in disciplinary action up to and including immediate termination.
