Condition: It was noted the supporting documentation submitted for reimbursement was calculated using budgeted percentages of wages for qualified employees instead of actual time worked. Cause: No procedures are in place to review the supporting documentation submitted for reimbursement was for actual time worked by qualified employees. Effect: Not using actual costs incurred when requesting reimbursement under this program can lead to reimbursement overstatements and non-compliance with the program. Recommendation: We recommend the Center report the reimbursement overstatement to City of San Antonio and correct the error. We recommend the Center develop procedures to review that supporting documentation submitted for reimbursement was for actual time worked. This review should be performed by personnel familiar with the program requirements. Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding and will work with the City of San Antonio to correct the issue, and develop review procedures to respond to the finding.

Condition: It was noted the supporting documentation submitted for reimbursement to the City of San Antonio, included incorrect salary information for two qualified employees. This led to a reimbursement overstatement of $2,093. Cause: No procedures are in place by management to determine the qualified employee salary information included on the reimbursement form is correct.

Condition: It was noted that a non-exempt employee was underpaid for hours worked during the fiscal year. This employee was paid their regular rate for all hours worked over 40 hours in one work week, this led to an underpayment of wages in the amount of $2,587. Cause: No procedures are in place to identify that non-exempt employees are being paid rates for hours worked more than 40 hours in a work week at a rate no less than one and a half times their current rate. Effect: Paying incorrect rates for hours worked over 40 hours in a work week resulted in noncompliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act. Recommendation: We recommend the Center to reimburse the employee for amounts due for all hours worked more than 40 hours in a work week during the fiscal year at a rate of no less than one and a half times their current rate. We recommend the Center establish and implement procedures to review and achieve compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act and ensure ongoing adherence to its requirements.
