As you all read in the August 22 Compass https://compass.k12albemarle.org/?p=2343595, we have a few leave program updates that are taking effect today.
Benefits-eligible, 10 & 11 Month employees will see Personal Leave and Sick Leave loaded in their Kronos Accruals today. This year, instead of accruing month by month, these leave types are front loaded for 10 & 11 month employees. Teachers will see their Personal Leave in a separate bucket from their Sick Leave.
To transition the end of the COVID Leave Bank Program, benefits-eligible employees will see 5 sick days added to their Sick Leave. This appears on timecards today as “1-Time Sick Leave Supplement” as a negative amount equal to 5 days (the amount appears negative to add it instead of use it).
The comment attached to the entry reads “Per the 8/22/2023 Compass article, ACPS has discontinued the COVID leave bank program. To assist with this transition, we are providing this one-time addition of five (5) sick leave days into the sick leave balances of benefits-eligible employees. Please note that while the number is a negative value, the code adds Sick Leave to your accruals.”
We received reports this morning that the Time Off Request Button was missing for Non-Exempt 10 & 11 month employees. That has now been fixed.
As noted in our July 28 post, we are still seeing an increase in historical correction requests. Submissions are taking up to 2 paychecks before they are processed (3 – 5 weeks from submission). Please help us remind employees to look at their timecards in Kronos to ensure timely and accurate checks.
We have located the issue within our Kronos setup. All 10/11-month employees should be able to request time off as normal.
If you have any employees who are still unable to see the time off request button by tomorrow, please reach out to Kim Shigeoka and Thomas Abell.
We are aware that the Time Off Request button is missing for 10 and 11 month employees. We are working on this issue and will email when it is resolved.
In the interim, supervisors and timekeepers can apply the appropriate leave cascade directly to the timecard if leave needs to be added.
Hi all,
As we get this new year started, I wanted to remind you that if an employee has been or will be out for 3 or more days, please have them reach out to me to discuss leave options:
They can email Leave@K12albemarle.org, Scampbell3@albemarle.org, or call me directly at
540-840-3059.
I will be in the weekly HRIS Office hour meetings with Thomas if you have any questions. If you are unable to make one of those sessions, please feel free to reach out to me directly.

We are moving the EAR process (employee changes for HR/Payroll) into ADP. Several of our Administrators have already completed the Employee Changes Wizard training – Thank you!
If you are a Principal, AP, Department/Program Directors, Deputy/Assistant Director and have not completed ADP training, sign up for one of the dates below. You are required to attend the first hour of training on ADP and the EAR process change. We encourage everyone to stay for the second hour of Kronos training (if you are a new Administrator you are required to stay for the second hour)
NEW Dates:
If you have any questions, please email Thomas Abell and Kim Shigeoka
We now have Terminations and Place on Leave workflows up in the employee changes wizard. You will find these under Job Changes in the list of other available change types.
We will be holding additional Timekeeper Employee Changes Wizard Training this fall.
Employee Changes Wizard documentation will be maintained on this site: Employee Changes in ADP (sharepoint.com) Timekeepers these have been updated since training earlier this year.

Please be aware we’ve been receiving an increase in historical correction requests and are trying to get them processed as fast as we can. Historical Corrections may take up to two payroll cycles to process until we are able to catch up.
Good morning!
We have received a few messages from the field stating that some Non-Exempt employees are concerned about this week’s pay stub. The Summer NE Inecentive work rule was built to pay their hours out at the employee’s regular pay rate and then add an additional (supplemental) $5 per hour.
As you can see, this is what an employee’s pay stub should look like if they worked 28.5 hours during summer school with the $5/hr incentive.
