Training for Employees

Non-exempt or exempt: which one are you?

Non-exempt / Biweekly Employees

In general, non-exempt biweekly employees are paid hourly. These employees report their hours worked and leave time each pay cycle, and may be eligible for overtime, shift, and on-call pay. Most student employees, those with Student Assistant titles, are non-exempt.

For non-exempt employees who will be using terminals (time clocks) to report hours, contact your supervisor for information on available training. Each department that uses terminals provides training for their non-exempt employees. Below are additional resources that provide step-by-step instructions for Anytime and RealTime reporting.

Exempt Employees

Exempt employees report only their leave taken, and are not eligible for overtime. They are responsible for entering leave taken each month in CalTime and approving their timecard by the monthly deadline, whether they have taken any leave or not. In general, exempt employees are paid a monthly salary.

If you are an exempt employee, you may learn more about your timekeeping tasks from the step-by-step guides and tutorial linked below.
