Criteria : Internal controls should be in place that provide reasonable assurance that pay rates for employees charged to federal programs are appropriately documented. Cause : There are no procedures in place that require verification of pay rates on all documentation. Effect : Because review of documentation is not required, employees pay rates may be inaccurately docuemented. Recomendation : Procedures should be implemented requiring the review of all documentation for all employees who charge time to federal programs. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions : The Organization will review its payroll documentation procedures to make the appropriate changes and dedicate staffing to perform these procedures.
