Leave Management

As a manager and time and absence approver, you have a great responsibility in approving your employee’s time. Human Resources highly recommends that you discuss with your employees your expectations regarding time management.

Here are some key points that will assist you in approving and managing time and absence events:

Share your expectations on when you want your employees to request leave.

Communicate to your employees the location of the computer stations that you want your student workers and casual labor employees to utilize when they punch in and out.

Communicate to your employees the importance of updating all of their personal information (address, emergency contacts, phone numbers etc…) in the OneUSG Connect employee self-service portal.

Clearly communicate to your non-exempt and exempt employees when (day and time) you want to approve their time for the current pay period.

Inform your exempt and non-exempt employees that repetitive failure to enter their time will lead to disciplinary action.

Inform your casual labor and student workers that repetitive failure to consistently punch in and out will lead to disciplinary action.

Tell your employees that if they punch in or out for someone else that both parties will be subject to disciplinary action.

It is the supervisor’s responsibility to ensure that their biweekly employees do not exceed their 40 hours, unless authorized.
