Staff Sign In and Out Sheet

A free printable staff attendance sheet — date, name, in, break, out, hours and a signature.

First page of the Staff Sign In and Out Sheet — Record who was actually on site and for how long, which is not always the same thing as what a timesheet says.

What this sheet is for

Record who was actually on site and for how long, which is not always the same thing as what a timesheet says.

Who it is for

Small employers, sites, shops, care settings, kitchens and anywhere a rota and reality diverge.

How to use it

  1. One sheet per week per site or department.
  2. Have people sign for themselves rather than someone signing for them.
  3. Leave the hours column for the person to total.
  4. File it with the payroll records for the week.

What is on the sheet

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: Who was on site each day, from what time to what time, signed by the person themselves.

Presence, not payroll. Different from a timesheet: a timesheet is what somebody is paid for, this is who was physically present. Both matter, and they are not always the same. Keep the hours column for the person to total themselves — no rate, no rounding rule and no pay figure is printed here.

Questions

Is this the same as a timesheet?

No, and it is worth keeping both. A timesheet is what somebody is paid for. This is who was physically present, which is what a fire roll call needs and what an attendance question turns on.

Why is there no pay rate on it?

Because rates, rounding rules and overtime treatment are yours and your contracts', and printing a column for them would invite somebody to use ours.
