Property Managers:
Cambridge policy requires employees to clock in at the beginning of each shift, clock in and out for the meal break, and clock out at the end of each day. Many employees are not accomplishing this, however going forward please ensure you and your staff are in compliance.
- Kronos Entries: Kronos automatically rounds the clock ins and outs, therefore the actual start and finish times must be entered. For example, If you start work at 7:54am enter 7:54am – not 8:00am. Likewise, if you start work at 8:05am, enter 8:05 – not 8:00am, etc.
- Meal Breaks: Per law, must be taken no later than the start of the 5th hour of work unless the shift concludes in 6 hours or less and be an interrupted minimum of at least 30 minutes, therefore it is important that the meal break be taken in a place where Residents are likely to inadvertently disrupt the meal break.
Payroll will be periodically monitoring Kronos, so please meet with each staff member to remind them of the clock in and out requirements, as well as the meal break conditions.
Thank you for your support and be sure to let Angela Cooper, Director of Human Resources and Safety, know if you have any questions.
