Troubleshooting: I'm a Certificated Administrator. Do I have timekeeping responsibilities during summer break?

Certificated Administrators who are off-contract are not expected to log in to EMPowerSF to approve timesheets in the summer. However, there are a few considerations and actions that will have to be taken depending on the scenario that applies to you. Please note that the pay periods falling within the Summer break period are as follows:

• Monthly pay period ending 6/20
• Monthly pay period ending 7/20
• Bi-weekly pay period ending 6/6
• Bi-weekly pay period ending 6/20
• Bi-weeklypay period ending 7/4
• Bi-weekly pay period ending 7/18
• Bi-weekly pay period ending 8/1

Scenario	Action/s to Take
I am off-contract but have approved (or need to approve) summer extended hours for staff that report to me	Prior to going on break, delegate a timekeeper so that extended hours can be acknowledged and approved with a SACS code after June 5. Here are the steps to Delegate a Timekeeper and Acknowledge Extra Time-Based Pay During Breaks.
I am off-contract but have direct reports that work through the summer (i.e. year-round clerks)	Prior to going on break, approve timesheets and time off for the dates listed above. Delegate a timekeeper so that timesheets and time off for the pay periods you are on break can be approved by your delegate. Here are the steps to Delegate a Timekeeper.
I am off-contract and have no direct reports that work* through the summer	Prior to going on break, approve timesheets and time off for the pay periods listed above. Here are the steps to Delegate a Timekeeper. *Some classified staff may have chosen to use Vacation time to get paid during the summer, which is why it might be useful to scan all BW timesheets.
I am working a summer assignment	You will have two timesheets and two sets of direct reports for each assignment. On the regular assignment, approve timesheets and time off for the dates listed above. Review summer timesheets as you normally would.
I am a central office manager and I work year-round, but I’m also taking time off during the summer. I have direct reports that work year-round.	Review timesheets as you normally would for the pay periods listed above. If your time off falls within pay period end dates, please ensure that you have a delegated timekeeper or back-up manager who can review timesheets on your behalf.
