Corrective Action/Management’s Response: In January 2024 the
City of Newton implemented the following corrective action plan in
response to finding 2023-001; however, during the audit process
for FY24 timesheets were reviewed that were prior to this
implementation date.
The City of Newton makes every effort to ensure that timesheets are
submitted, signed, reviewed, and entered in the payroll system
accurately and efficiently. Once timesheets are approved by
supervisors they are sent to HR for processing. If at any time during
this process the HR staff member entering the information is aware
of missing approval or other information on the timesheet, they will
verify the data with the supervisor and sign off on the timesheet in
an effort to not delay the weekly timesheet processing. This will be
notated on the timesheet for documentation purposes.
Proposed Completion Date: Immediate and ongoing
