Memo From Accounting Department


It has come to our attention recently that many of you


have been turning in timesheets that specify large amounts


of "Miscellaneous Unproductive Time" (Code 5309). However,


we need to know exactly what you are doing during your


unproductive time.


Attached below is a sheet specifying a tentative extended


job code list based on our observations of employee activities.


The list will allow you to specify with a fair amount of


precision what you are doing during your unproductive time.


Please begin using this job-code list immediately and let


us know about any difficulties you encounter.


Thank you,


Accounting
