How to Set up Pay to Start/End on the Time Card

Summary

This document addresses work instructions for how to set up pay to start/end including pay to scheduled start/end and pay to actual start/end on an employee’s time card.

 

Pay to Start/End

There are instances when an employee with a scheduled start and end time, punches in earlier or out later than those scheduled times. For example, an employee is scheduled to start work at 8:00am. On her way to work, she stops at the store to pick up office supplies for the clinic. By the time she arrives to work she punches in at 8:45am, which the system interprets as a late/tardy punch. For the employee to receive hours for the 45-minute errand, a manager must adjust her time card.

 

Paying Employee to Schedule or Actual Time

There are instances when an employee with a scheduled start and end time, punches in earlier or out later than those scheduled times.

Improper use of this can be in violation with FLSA.
