Getting Paid: Completing Your Timesheet

 Timesheets must be submitted weekly.

 Tracking your hours is simple:

  2. Record your shifts: Don't forget your lunch break!
  3. Print, sign and submit your timesheet to your supervisor.
    Intramural Staff: Email your timesheet!
    - Send to intramurals@mcmaster.ca
    - Subject Line: Timesheet

 Digital entries only: You must fill out the timesheet using a computer - do not print until it is completely filled out!

 Built-in help tips: The timesheet has help-tips to guide you. If you're not sure what a cell is for, click it!

for all your Ath-Rec jobs!

What's New?
  • Version 1.1: Automatic Date Completion
    There's often confusion as to when a pay period begins and ends - no more!

    In version 1.1 of the timesheet, you only need to enter the "From Date" - which is always a Sunday - and then watch the rest fill in on their own.

    Each pay-week begins on a Sunday and ends on the following Saturday.

Close up timesheet

  • The electronic timesheet calculates your hours - no more math, and no more addition errors!
    This saves our accounting staff a lot of time, and ensures you're paid appropriately for your work.
  • Multiple positions on one timesheet.
    Many staff hold multiple positions across different programs - you can now track up to four job assignments on one timesheet.
  • Keep a digital record of what you've done.
    Save a copy of your timesheets. You'll want to rename the file using "Save As" to ensure you're not overwriting a previous week's record.
  • Let them know what you did!
    The new timesheet also provides a 'task description' section to describe what you did, which helps your supervisor understand where projects are at and how to plan for the future.

FAQ
  • Q: I came back to the web, and my timesheet was blank - why?

    A: You must save the file locally.
    If you enter your hours and don't save the file on your computer (e.g., on the desktop), it will not be saved online - the form will be blank the next time you click "Download a blank timesheet".
  • Q: I saved the file, but now I can't find it - where is it?

    A: It's likely lost in your temporary files.
    Be careful when saving your file - use "Save As" and pay attention to the "Save in" menu - make sure you know where it's going! If you did lose it, try using your computer's Search function to find it - searching your Local Drives for 'timesheet' is a good idea.
