Time and Labor Access

Purpose

This article will help you understand the steps needed to access Employee Time and Labor (timesheet) in Gemini for Departments.

Process

Step 1 - Position Accepted

The Employee accepts the position and completes the hiring paperwork with Student Employment (Student Workers) or Human Resources (Full-time/Part-time Employees) department.

Step 2 - ePAR Creation

An ePAR is created by the payroll team after completing the hiring paperwork. If a student worker is being re-hired, the hiring department must create the ePAR.

Step 3 - ePAR is Approved

All departments involved in the hiring process must approve the ePAR. The ePAR approvals can be broken down into two sections: department and after-department approvals.

Department Approvals: Hiring Department (Example: Department where new hires will be working, such as the OIT, JSOM, Multicultural Center, etc.)

  • Department Business Manager / Business Services / Coordinator
  • Department Administrative Assistant

After Department Approvals: Each department below has one approval to complete for all the other departments outside the Hiring Department. A total of three After Department approvals.

  • Career Center (Student Worker Only)
  • HR (Full-time/Part-time Employee only)
  • Budget Office
  • Payroll Office

Below is an example of ePAR approvals for Full-Time/Part-Time employees:

For Student Workers, the approval looks like this:

Step 4 - Update Job Data

Once the ePAR has been completed and approved by all departments, the job data is updated.

Step 5 - Timesheet Assigned

The Hiring Department Time Admin will assign the timesheet. Most Departmental Administrative Assistants are Time Admins, but this may vary for each department and their internal teams.

  • Prior Job assignment?
    • Verify prior assignment/job ends on the date before the new assignment starts, and ensure the previous timesheet is removed.
  • Multiple Job assignments?
    • Make sure the correct employee record is selected when assigning the timesheet.

Step 6 - Time Available to Employee

The Time tile will appear in Gemini for employee use.
