Finding Text
2 CFR § 300 codified in 45 CFR part 75 gives regulatory effect to the Department of Health and Human Services. 2 C.F.R § 200.303(a) provides that the non-Federal entity must establish and maintain effective internal control over the Federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-Federal entity is managing the Federal award in compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. The General Health District has established procedures to approve timesheets by requiring the employee and department supervisor to sign the timesheets indicating they are accurate (employee) and approved (supervisor). For 2024, 8% of payroll disbursement timesheets tested over the Community Health Workers for Public Health Response and Resilient Program were not signed by the Health Commissioner and/or Director of Administration to indicate timesheets were accurate. Failure to follow the approved procedures could result in the occurrence of unallowable payroll transactions. The General Health District should ensure that both the employee and department supervisor sign the timesheets. These approvals should be maintained for audit.
