PAYROLL: A few housekeeping items for employees and supervisors as we all learn to use the ADP system:
- All missed punch forms should be turned in as soon as possible, so errors can be fixed right away. Please don’t hold onto them until payroll is due.
- Any overtime needs to be approved by your supervisor (in advance, whenever possible).
- All employees should approve their own timecard in MyADP BEFORE your supervisor approves it (another reason to correct missed punches as soon as you can).
- Managers need to approve payroll by 9AM on the appropriate Monday. If you are responsible for payroll and will be gone for any reason, you should communicate to your supervisor (or HR) to have your team’s payroll approved.
NEW PROGRAM SESSION: Registration for Winter Session I programs opens on Monday. Check out the program guide at the Welcome Desk or online here. Registration will be open until Tuesday, December 20th. Programs will begin on Monday, January 2nd.
KROC REFRIGERATOR: Please check the Kroc Refrigerator (our member bulletin board just past the main check-in gate) for information on the Angel Tree program, which blesses thousands of families in Kent County each Christmas with toys, gift cards, and more. As in past years, you’ll be able to select tags, shop for children, and drop gifts back off at the Welcome Desk.
