It is important that time be recorded accurately by employees using self-service so that you are paid correctly and are awarded appropriate benefits.  Not all Time Reporting Codes (TRCs) should be used via self-service, and there are audits to ensure proper use.

The following is a chart of TRCs and how they should be used. If you have any questions please contact the Payroll Office (978-934-3560).
