Under the Payroll department, I was responsible for gathering timesheets and entering them into the attendance system. Starting May 2016, I have created a new integrative position called the Employee Data Control in which I was responsible for maintenance of all employee records and gathering necessary paperwork for federal and state regulation as well as starting the process of standardizing the paperwork and procedures.
