[All_staff] Timesheet Approvals are Due to Finance no Later Than 2:00 p.m. Today

[jpsmith at jlab.org]

Completed and signed employee timesheets for February 16-28, 2011 were
due to supervisors at the *end of the employee's work day yesterday,
February 28th*.  If an employee was absent, the supervisor should have
completed and signed the employee's timesheet by this same deadline.

*Supervisor and project manager approvals* on these timesheets are due
to Finance *no later than 2:00 p.m. today, March 1st*.  As a
reminder, Jefferson Lab does not have compensatory time as a form of
payment for overtime.  Please remember that for non-exempts, your
timesheet should always reflect your actual work and leave time for the
period; and for exempts, your timesheet should always reflect your work
prorated as required and your actual leave time for the period.  For
those who supervise students and casuals, sign their timesheets even if
they did not have time for this period.

_*Time Reporting for ARC and VARC Power Outage on February 25th*_
As a result of the power outages in the ARC and VARC buildings on
Friday, February 25th, employees whose productive time was affected by
the outage are to follow the guidelines below for recording time:

_All Staff_
If you were already scheduled for vacation/sick leave on Friday,
February 25th, then enter your hours accordingly as vacation/sick
leave.  The power outage does not affect your time entries.

_Students & Casuals:
_Record actual hours worked on Friday as normal.  Students and Casuals
are not eligible for any type of leave.

_Non-Exempt Staff:
_Record actual hours worked on Friday as normal.  The remainder of your
scheduled work day should be charged either to Weather/Public Emergency
Leave (up to 4 hours) or vacation accordingly.

_Exempt Staff:

worked on Friday.  The remainder of your scheduled work day should be

_Time Collection Supported Browsers_
Many employees have problems when completing timesheets using different
versions of the Mozilla browser, specifically versions 1.7.2 and 1.7.3.
Correcting timesheets, specifically, cannot be completed using the
Mozilla browser.  Internet Explorer is the preferred browser, but please
be advised there are problems accessing the employee self-service
options when using IE 8.

Inside JLab - http://misportal.jlab.org/time
JLab Insight Page - Click on Timesheet under the Popular Applications
section
Off-site access - http://misportal.jlab.org/time

The JLab Time Collection Manual is also available from the JLab home
page under Publications, then Manuals.
