Meal and rest periods will be provided consistent with applicable law and will be scheduled by management. Non-exempt employees must clock out for unpaid meal periods of the duration required by law. Employees who are relieved of all duties during a meal period must record the start and end times accurately in the timekeeping system.

Overtime

Timekeeping Procedures

Accurate time records are required for all employees. Employees must record time worked using the company's designated timekeeping method. Altering, falsifying, or failing to record time is prohibited and may result in discipline. Time entries must reflect actual time worked; supervisors are responsible for verifying accuracy prior to payroll submission.

Flexible and Remote Work

Requests for flexible scheduling or remote work will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Approval is at management's discretion and may be revoked. Remote work arrangements require adherence to the timekeeping, confidentiality, and equipment policies of the company.

Leave and Time Off

Requests for paid or unpaid leave must follow established procedures. Leave is granted in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local laws and company policies. Employees are required to provide notice and documentation as required by policy or law.

Recording and Rounding

Time may be rounded in accordance with established payroll procedures and applicable law; rounding is not applied to avoid payment of overtime. Any rounding or automated adjustments will be documented and applied uniformly.
