Reviewing and Submitting Time

To view your weekly hours, please use Workday, NOT ScheduleSource. Workday requires all employees to review and submit their time at the end of each work week. 

Go to the timekeeping app on your homepage and navigate to the current week's time block (click on this week). 

You will then be brought to a review screen. If there is an issue contact your manager immediately. If no issue, click SUBMIT and SUBMIT.

You will be directed to a final review page where you need to click submit again. Your hours will then be approved and sent to payroll for completion.

Please remember to clock in only at the physical time clock located inside your work location, never by phone!
