Timesheet guidance due to inclement weather

After an unusual two weeks of inclement weather that disrupted campus programming and operations, we want to thank the TU staff, faculty, and students for their understanding throughout the changes and communication related to TU’s operating schedule.  While the safety of our students, staff, and faculty remains our top priority, we acknowledge multiple messages can sometimes cause confusion.  We have provided the guidance below to clarify how to complete timesheets for the past two weeks.  This applies to all staff, including regular, contingent II, and contingent I, all faculty and librarians, and all student employees, including Graduate Assistants.

Employees who were not scheduled to work, were scheduled to take leave, or were already on leave during any of the following delays/closures, may not use administrative leave.

• On January 10^th, all faculty, staff, and student employees scheduled to work on that day are eligible for Administrative Leave for any scheduled work hours prior to 10 a.m.

• On January 16^th, all faculty, staff, and student employees scheduled to work on that day are eligible for Administrative Leave for any scheduled work hours prior to 12 p.m.
• From noon on January 16^th to 10 a.m. on January 17^th, all employees that teleworked should record REG worked hours. Those unable to telework should record Administrative Leave for any scheduled work hours.
• On January 19^th, all faculty, staff and student employees who were scheduled to work are eligible for Administrative Leave.
• ADMU leave code – Regular Faculty & Staff, Librarians
• ADMCE leave code – Contingent II Exempt Staff
• ADMCU leave code – Contingent II Non-Exempt Staff and Contingent I Staff
• Student Employees – students scheduled to work during the delay/closure should record normal work hours on the time sheet and note the administrative leave hours in the comment section of the time sheet for that day.
• Contingent Lecturers – record the REG leave code for any time worked and note the administrative leave hours in the comments section.

Non-exempt emergency essential personnel, who were required to work during times when the physical campus was closed, are paid for the hours worked and receive straight time administrative leave for scheduled work hours.  Use leave code ADMEW for the administrative leave hours.
