Higa July 25 2006 Page 7 These forms were submitted at the end of each pay period for payroll processing. As such employee signatures on the Form D55 were not required. Claimants were furnished with the employee copy of the form permitting detection and resolution of any discrepancy or dispute in a timely manner. Following the October 2003 termination of the Kronos project due to vendor performance issues in Summer 2005 PSD developed a partially mechanized time and attendance database application to streamline and better manage employee payroll claims for other than base salary. A pilot project was implemented in Fall 2005 beginning with the Neighbor Island correctional institutions. PSD s T A system centers on the use of standardized sign-in sign-out logs for daily T A recordkeeping for non-shift workers as well as three employee shifts per day. In the case of uniformed officers the Watch Commander submits the sign-in sign-out logs through the Chief of Security and the Warden to the Time and Attendance Unit TAU clerk. Similarly supervisors of civilian employees would submit the logs through the chain of command to the TAU clerk. The TAU clerk enters the time worked into a database that performs calculations based on the TAU clerk s specialized knowledge and application of seven collective bargaining agreements and corresponding entry of appropriate data elements. The semi-automated processing of compensation claims produces a machine-generated Form D55 and Form 10 Notification of Temporary Assignment. The success of this in-house system is due in large part to the deliberate exclusion of programmed work rules necessary to implement complex CBA provisions including those of the Unit 10 contract in particular. PSD s new time and attendance system has effectively demonstrated that AGO review and certification of the Form D55 is unnecessary. However ACOs may still review and sign D55s provided that they remit the signed forms to the TAU clerks
