Always Note Absences On Timesheets

Reminder:  Make a note of your absence on your timesheet.

Anytime you must end your regularly scheduled shift early you need to give a reason on your timesheet.  One or two sentences is sufficient--just make a note in the "Comments" section of your timesheet.  This rule applies even if you miss an entire day due to vacation, illness, doctor's visits, etc.  This rule also applies even if the time is/was already approved by your supervisor and the client's family.

Always note the reason for your absence on your timesheet so that when our services are audited we can provide an explanation for any day or partial day that we failed to provide services to our clients.

Thanks in advance for helping us keep accurate records and maintain our accountability to our regulators.
