Special Time Reporting Instructions for All Staff
All Staff eligible to receive holiday pay during the winter holiday break must report the appropriate “Holiday”, or “Administrative Leave” hours on their time records for the weeks containing such days unless they are required by the appropriate vice president to work on one or more of these days. The following procedures will apply to holiday-eligible staff members who are required to work on one or more of these days.
HOLIDAYS: Hourly Staff members required to work on an approved Holiday are to be paid their regular rate of pay for the hours worked plus holiday pay, unless they can be scheduled, with the supervisor’s approval, for an alternative day off as their holiday during the same two-week pay period in which the holiday falls. Time records must be clearly marked “Holiday” to receive holiday pay.
ADMINISTRATIVE LEAVE DAYS: Hourly Staff members required to work on an approved Administrative Leave Day are to be paid their regular rate of pay for the hours worked plus Administrative Leave pay, unless they can be scheduled, with the supervisor’s approval, for an alternative day off as their Administrative Leave Day during the same two-week pay period in which the Administrative Leave Day falls. Time records must be clearly marked “Administrative Leave” to receive Administrative Leave pay.
Please note that hourly staff members who report and receive the appropriate type of holiday pay during these holiday periods are not entitled to take alternative days off with pay at a later date. Supervisors are responsible for monitoring the use and reporting of time. All offices must maintain an appropriate level of staffing during regular business hours. Supervisors and/or hourly staff members who have questions regarding the reporting of any holiday hours may contact the Payroll Office at payroll@wooster.edu.
