time sheets and accountability

thebull

Hi all just a question with regard too proof of hours worked whilst working for the NHS.
As a band 4 employee I have to fill in a monthly time sheet which I sign this is then checked by my line manager and co signed if all is well
My question is how are higher grades and doctors,consultants,psychiatrist ,psychologists ect held accountable ?
thank you

up to at least band 7s do the time sheets, not sure about higher ups

I used to work for the NHS as band 5 then band 6 - I've never had to do a time sheet (with the exception of overtime/additional bank work).

I imagine the post's that your are mentioning are salaried with adjustments made for out-of hours work.

Thank you Claree much appreciated .
Any one else got any idea about time sheet accountability ?

And how do you know anything you get told on a public forum is more reliable than what your manager tells you?

If you want to know, make a FOI request of your employer.

Domino 9 Would you say that there is "opportunity" for higher grades to be economic with the truth with regards to there time spent at work ?

I get the distinct feeling that this is a 'whistle-blower' situation?
