Hour Tracking – Sheet and Tips

  1. Create a sheet to track your hours, such as the one we created here!
  2. Whenever you do tasks for your position, record them in the sheet. If you worked after hours or above your agreed-upon weekly maximum, put it in the notes.
  3. Maintain this throughout the semester, note when you reach 50% and 75% of your total agreed upon hours.
  4. When you reach 50% of your agreed-upon hours, if you reached them quickly or are worried about going over hours, notify your supervisor. If problems arise, please contact the union.
  5. Once you reach your agreed-upon hours, notify your supervisor about this and that further work is overtime. If problems arise, please contact the union.
  6. Repeat the process for any other suitable roles.
