## [Refresher of Timekeeping Expectations](https://clinical.healthtrustjobs.com/refresher-of-timekeeping-expectations)
Posted by [HealthTrust Workforce Solutions](https://clinical.healthtrustjobs.com/author/healthtrust-workforce-solutions) on Apr 22, 2021, 11:03:32 AM
HealthTrust Workforce Solutions is excited to enhance the employment experience of every clinician and assist in providing exceptional care to patients across the country. At this time, we wanted to provide an update regarding our timekeeping expectations for clinicians.
Kronos Punches at HCA Healthcare Facilities:
If you are aware that a punch was missed or a correction needs to be made in Kronos, please notify the Time Editor at the facility (i.e. Nursing Office or Unit manager), so they may enter the corrections in real-time so it will not delay your pay. It is your responsibility to ensure your punches are reflected and accurate in Kronos.
Meal Breaks:
- You are expected to take a 30-minute meal break during each shift.
- The most common issues are short and missed meal breaks.
- Punches out and back in must be at least 30-minutes in order for the meal break to register
- Tip: Set a timer on your phone for 30–35 minutes to remind you to ensure a full 30-minute meal break
- Be sure to work out an assigned meal break time with a buddy or arrange with the charge nurse to ensure coverage & compliance.
- Meal breaks must be taken within the first 8 hours of your 12-hour shift, but not before the first four hours of your shift.
- In the event that you are unable to take a meal break, please notify the facility designee (Charge, Supervisor, Director) and document per facility guidelines.
Please Note: Failure to comply with the above performance expectations may result in disciplinary action leading up to termination.
Clinicians, we are thankful for your commitment and dedication to patient care!
