Payroll
Payroll - How Things Work
- Pay Day is generally the last business day of each month.
- Pay Roll Cut Off is the last business day of the month. Extra hours, changes in schedule, overtime or holiday work should be approved by your supervisor in advance and will be paid in the following month.
- Teacher, Administrator and Management contracts are divided into twelve equal monthly payments. Timesheet hours for teachers are rare but could include after school tutoring programs, subbing for other teachers during prep time or teacher mentor hours. Time is reported through Frontline Time and Attendance.
- Classified Staff are paid hourly. Annual hours are calculated and divided into twelve equal monthly payments. Time is reported through Frontline Time and Attendance. OPHC Workshop leaders report time and time off using paper forms.
- Coaching contracts are paid out in two to five months based on the length and months of the season. Classified employees who are coaching should keep track of their coaching hours on a coaching log and turn it in to the Payroll Office at the end of the season.
- Pay Advice (pay stub) for each employee is available electronically in Employee Access in Skyward. Employees will receive an email when payroll is processed each month. Employee Access information includes check history, check estimator, Year-to-Date information, W-2 Information and more. See FINDING PAY AND TIME OFF INFORMATION IN SKYWARD for specifics. If you need assistance or have questions about your pay, contact the Payroll Office.
Time Off Reporting in Frontline Absence Management. To enter an absence sign in to FRONTLINE and select ABSENCE MANAGEMENT in the drop down menu.
- Teacher and Para educator absences will generate a request for a substitute when an absence is entered unless the absence is designated as "No Sub Required".
- Bus Drivers, Food Service and Custodial workers should contact their supervisor about absences as well as enter them in Frontline. Supervisors will contact substitutes directly rather than using the automated call out system.
- All other Support Staff (office, nurse, counselor, maintenance, etc) should enter their absence even though no sub is required. Supervisors and the office will be notified when an employee puts in an absence.
- Frontline will have correct time off balances. Balances in Employee Access will be updated monthly with payroll when absences are exported from Frontline Contact the Payroll Office if you see a discrepancy or have questions about your balances.
- Custom Absence times can be entered for partial days. Teachers should always request a sub for the whole day even if they only need coverage for part of the day. If arrangements have been made with other teachers to cover one period of the day and no outside sub is required enter the absence and provide details in the comments section of the absence.
- Absences for Professional Development (Training) or School Business (Field Trips, Meetings) must be preapproved by the superintendent. Include details about the absence when you enter it and allow extra time for approval.
- Absences cannot be entered retroactively. Contact the Payroll Office if for some reason you were unable to enter an absence.
- Absences can be entered by phone or on-line. See the guide or video below for instructions on entering an absence.
TIMESHEETS in FRONTLINE TIME & ATTENDANCE. To access timesheets sign in to FRONTLINE and select TIME & ATTENDANCE in the drop down menu.
CLASSIFIED EMPLOYEES
- Employee regular hours should be automatically populated on the timesheets as total hours per day. Adjust the amount for differences (add time or time missed). A comment will be required if a change is made to time.
- Employees with more than one position will have a timesheet for each position.
- Leave for absences submitted in Absence Management will automatically be transferred to timesheets.
- Additional timesheet options will be available for extra time such as training, subbing or summer hours. These timesheets can be added as appropriate.
- Timesheets should be reviewed and submitted weekly even if no changes are made. Currently timesheet can be submitted but time cannot be edited in the mobile app because we are not using a clock-in feature.
