Charges to awards must be made based on records that accurately reflect the work performed. Timesheets electronically record the hours a Research Foundation (RF) employee works or charges to a specific leave type (annual leave, sick leave, etc.) during a biweekly pay period.
The purpose of this procedure is to summarize the submission and approval process of timesheets for RF employees.
Responsibilities
On a biweekly basis, RF employees are responsible for submitting their timesheets via the RF’s time and leave system. Timesheets must correctly reflect the time worked and any leave taken.
Principal Investigators (PIs), Project Directors (PDs), or their Authorized Approvers (AAs) are responsible for reviewing and approving timesheets of employees by each pay period deadline.
The RF payroll calendar is available here for your easy reference.
If PIs/PDs/AAs cannot approve their employees’ timesheet(s), they should inform their Grants Officers as soon as possible.
PIs/PDs are also responsible for keeping track of accrued annual leave for all employees on their grant(s) and making arrangements with employees to use accrued annual leave.
