Time sheets and deduction of wages (absence)

Forget the time sheet you are not supposed to see.
Query with the employer your pay if this does not reflect the hours you believe have worked.
come back when you have the response from your employer.0 -
Ok poor choice of words, I have been on time that better? What are you an employer? Seem hell bent on giving me a lecture. let me tell you I don't care if late is late and there's no excuse if I have to take time off for my child I will they can try and stop even try to make my live hell my family will come first
Sadly, they can put you on the sacking path for constant lates.... The fact that you've got away with quite a few is actually a compliment to your employer! They (quite rightly) give you some leeway with your children. It will, however, get to the point where they go 'enough is enough' and start you on the sacking route; verbal warning, written warning, 2nd written, final warning then a sacking. Easy peasy.
With regards to the time sheet... are you calling them liars? I mean fair play to you if they are lying about the number of lates you have had, but that's a heavy line to take against an employer. You need to be 100% correct and even then it could mess things up....
Also, I'm very suspicious about the fact that you're more bothered about 9 hours deduction (when you've admitted to at least some lates) and don't seem too concerned about PPE (personnel protective equpument?) of welding and some breach of contract... I mean not going to lie but if you get injured in a welding accident then a 9 hour deduction will be the least of your worries!0 -
To be honest I'm not really that bothered about the 9 hrs I'll put it down paying bCk an over payment for October when I took an extra holiday. Just wanted to know a bit more about time sheet and how they are ment to be used, what to do when it's wrong etc etc.
Regarding ppe well where there's a blame there's a claim. Really I just be careful it means a half day job can take a day and the welds are messy might lack penatration and might fall off on the motorway, all I can do is request ppe and hope for the best. Breech of contract means I lose a day working but gain a whole day with my little one so can't really moan0 -

*sigh* Why post then?Just wanted to know a bit more about time sheet and how they are ment to be used, what to do when it's wrong etc etc.
Well, if you are referring to the fact that a box is allocated to you signing it then bear in mind that you haven't signed off any previous wages. If you want to go the jobsworth route then maybe you have to pay back all of the previous wages because you haven't signed off on them (they'll pay you back once you have signed off)! What to do when it's legitimately wrong = complain (nicely) to your employer and bear in mind your circumstances.Regarding ppe well where there's a blame there's a claim.

The post wasn't focused on the PPE, it was a side note.... That aside, you should really seek a job with good PPE (or buy your own stuff!!) if that is a major concern. ALSO, to have the 'blame-claim' attitude is a bit reckless IF there is even a slight danger of it causing serious injury. No amount of money can replace the care you give your children.Breech of contract means I lose a day working but gain a whole day with my little one so can't really moan
Who decided that? Because I'm not convinced that the company wouldn't prefer to have you working that day you lose! It comes across that they've made a really generous adjustment for you!0 -
Are you sure you are not late by say 5mns regularly, and that they decided to deduct a whole hour each time. No idea if they can do that, but that could explain the discrepancy. Until you speak to your manager, you won't know though, so you need to start with getting clarity as to what happened and then inquire whether it was legal or not, rather than going at it the other way.0

Unless they include you in the time sheet process they are none of your business just the companies.
Don't just asume the 9 hours are deduction for a previous overpayment if it is it should be documented properly on pay slips.
Want more time with your kids resign.0 -
If NMW then no they can't.Are you sure you are not late by say 5mns regularly, and that they decided to deduct a whole hour each time.

If paid salary or more than NMW then if contract probably.
OP- Do as getmore4less said, I would definitely be asking the question.
But also, why is the school run making you late, have you asked for flexible working?Don't trust a forum for advice. Get proper paid advice. Any advice given should always be checked0
