We give them a calendar the place they enter their hours labored, after which we course of payroll based mostly on these calendars twice a month. The calendars are the one approach we all know something about folks’s work schedules, as they will change drastically from week to week.
A brand new worker for some motive simply is not going to fill out his calendar in something approaching a well timed method. He has been right here for months, and to date I’ve been in a position to course of his hours with everybody else’s as soon as. Apart from that one time, he has utterly ignored his calendar (and all of my emails) for about 1.5 months, then backfills all of it and expects to be paid for all that point.
