Since the beginning of the year, and especially over the past several weeks, the campus has seen numerous emails and resources regarding guidance from public health authorities in an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and how that translates to us at Berkeley with social distancing, impacts to class delivery, workforce impacts, etc. Protecting the health and safety of members of the campus community remains the top priority and the campus is committed to preserving the academic mission.

Campus Colleagues,
We’re reaching out to provide a preview of some upcoming changes to CalTime, the campus’ electronic timekeeping system, which we’re updating to include Readers and Tutors. We’re making this change because it will ensure we are aligned with best practices for timekeeping across the UC system and it will help facilitate on-time pay as CalTime sends reminder notifications to both employees and managers to remind their employees to complete timesheets and managers to approve.
