This report shows graphical info and background as to the amount of useful work time and money is lost due to leaving early or unproved overtime. This report also states my recommendation of a sophisticated time clock and its implementation costs reliability and usefulness to avoiding unused work time and excessive overtime.

Data and ResearchData of monthly overtime requests and supervisor documentation of employees leaving before eight hours without leave request will show the need for digital documentation of hours for proper use of work hours and vacation and sick leave.

My Findings and RecommendationsDue to the findings of severe misuse of work time, my recommendation is to institute the Kronos Time Clock Management System to accurately track employee attendance and cut back on overuse of overtime payment.

In our current political climate there is a trend towards taking money away from science and research. Part of the parts that encompass Science and Research are the support staff needed to keep the researchers functioning and succeeding. Among the many cut back the university receives each year is to the budget of facilities and other classified employee departments. With the lack of finances becoming more and more of an issue we must be able to identify problem areas and efficiently solve these problems to save money.

One of the major problems currently affecting the classified employee budget is the misuse of overtime and not using all eight hours a day. Currently undocumented overtime is costing Facilities Operations Department alone $228,000 a year.
