Time and Labor Information

All hourly students should be reporting their time via the Time & Labor (T&L) system. 

Approving Student Employee Time

TIME AND LABOR F.A.Q.

Please view the above training video and then submit the HCM Security Access Request.

Please choose the following:
Area: Payroll
Role: BG_TL_SUPERVISOR/HR_EHIRE_DEPT

Students use a Web Clock to record time worked. The Web Clock is accessed via the MyBGSU Portal, located under the heading "Time and Labor Employee"

  • Verify that the student has been “Cleared to Work” from Student Employment Services (SES) and that 24-48 hours has passed since receiving the clearance for processing.
  • Verify that the student is on the BGSU Campus and connected to the BGSU Wi-fi account.

If the problem persists, contact ITS at 2-0999 or contact ITS via live chat to initiate a ticket.

  • Contact SES at 372.2865 or stuemp@bgsu.edu to make sure that the supervisor information is accurate on the employment record. 
  • Verify you are in the correct time period on the selection screen. Hit “refresh” and “Get Employees” if you have changed the time period.  
  • For new students/rehires, there is a 24 hour lag time between the time the students are entered into PeopleSoft and the timesheet is created.
  • Check your Group ID and make sure the last letter is an “S” for students.
  • To search by name, input is case-sensitive.
  • T & L only applies to hourly students now, but it may apply to contracted students in the future. Completing the training and obtaining the necessary security in advance of this occurring can be helpful, and it may be necessary to hire an hourly student in the future.

Give it a few minutes and let the screen run to build cache. Close out of the application and try opening it again. If the problem persists, request a ticket to resolve the issue from TSC at 2.0999 or contact ITS via live chat.
