Timecard Approval deadlines

Approval Deadlines

Non-Exempt employees approve and submit a time-sheet every other week and supervisors approve the timesheet immediately after the biweekly pay period has ended.

Exempt employees approve and submit a time-sheet once per month and supervisors approve the timesheet typically on the 5th business day of the calendar month.

Note: Approval dates are subject to change during pay periods when a holiday occurs.
