SUBJECT : "8-Filling" on Time and Attendance
Reports
REFERENCE Draft of memorandum, subject: Proposed
revision of Forms 20, Time and
Attendance Report, prepared by
25X1A9a on 14 November 1959
1. You referred reference to this Office with a request
for comments.
2. The subject problem has been reviewed recurringly
based on employee suggestions and in connection with revisions
of the Time and Attendance Report form to determine whether
some alternative procedure could be prescribed to alleviate
the "8-Filling," "8-Checking," and "8-Error Adjusting" problem
inasmuch as we recognize the significant amount of work in-
volved in this operation.
3. The present procedure which requires the "8-Filling"
operation is based upon Title 6 of the GAO Policy and Proce-
dures I...anual for Guidance of Federal Agencies, as follows:
"3030.40 RECORDING AID REPORTING ATTENDANCE OR PIECEWORK.
A record of the time in pay status or of the piecework
completed by each employee, as required for preparing the
payroll, shall be currently maintained by designated
employees."
The writer called Chief, Policy and Procedures Staff, GAO on
6 April 1:360 to inquire as to the present GAO policy. Advice
was received that exceptions to the "positive" reporting pro-
cedures have not been made by GAO nor will they be considered
favorable by GAO at this time. The reason for this position
is that in every instance in which unauthorized departure has
been made by agencies from the "positive" reporting procedure
in the past an excessive number of payroll errors have
resulted.
4. Fiscal Division reports a minimum of overpayments
with the resulting accounts receivable and collection problems
