The original German text fully prevails.  \nBasic Principles  \nAdministrative and technical staff at UZH are entitled and obliged by law to keep an employee time sheet (§  \n129 of the implementation ordinance to the employment act of the Canton of Zurich (VVO)) . This must be checked and signed off by their line manager on a monthly basis. The Human Resources (HR) department has provided the attached Excel sheet for recording working hours, and only this sheet may be used for that purpose.  \nNon-professorial academic staff at UZH also have the right to keep a personal record of the hours they work, but they do not have to do so. However, they will only be entitled to claim unused vacation or compensation for a positive working hours balance if they keep a record of their working hours and this is checked and signed off by their line manager (§ 33 of the employment ordinance of the University of Zurich, PVO-UZH) . The attached Excel sheet is also the only valid way to record working hours for this group of employees.  \nThe HR department may request submission of the completed employee time sheets.  \nTransitional regulation for the turn of the year 2024/2025 and for compensating a negative working hours balance  \nPlease check the  Fact Sheet on Working Hours at the Turn of the Year 2024/2025 for the applicable working hours regulation for the turn of the year 2024/2025 .  \nAs of 31 December 2024, as an exception a negative working hours balance of no more than 119 hours and 24 minutes may be carried over to the following year. This figure is based on 84 hours plus a balance of 35 hours and 24 minutes required to compensate for lost work at the turn of the year (based on full-time employment) .  \nThese minus hours must be reduced to no more than 84 hours by 30 June 2025, which is half a year later than usual. Any balance of negative working hours that extends beyond 1 July 2025 must be compensated with overtime or vacation time. With this, the regular conditions according to § 121 para. 1 of the Implementation Ordinance of the Employment Act will be restored.  \nWith regard to carrying over a positive and/or negative working hours balance or vacation balance, please note the applicable regulations in the fact sheets “Working Hours at the Turn of the Year 2024/2025” and “Vacation”(see the websites Vacation and Working Hours) .  \nCompensation for extra hours  \nThe § 124 para. 3 VVO (“Compensation of more than one consecutive day is only permitted after employees have taken all their vacation”) explicitly regulates the principle already applied and recognized in part in practice of “Vacation before compensation for extra hours.” This means vacation must be taken before extra hours  \ncan be compensated (= positive working hours balance). Compensation of extra hours of up to one day is permitted, even if the employee has not used up all of his or her vacation balance. This makes it possible, in particular, to take advantage of what are known as “bridge days”(e.g. after Ascension Day) or to take extra hours off (e.g. by finishing work earlier or by taking the morning of Sechseläuten or Knabenschiessen off) .  \nVacation must always be taken before consecutive compensation days are taken. For that reason, warnings will be displayed on the monthly sheet if more than one compensation day is used even though the employeestill has a remaining vacation balance:  \nCompensation days may not be systematically interrupted by vacation days or weekends. To give a specific example, this means it is not possible to take one compensation day, followed by eight days of vacation, followed by another compensation day. Taking compensation days on a Friday and then on the following Monday is also prohibited. In this context, the employee time sheet follows the regular weekend days, the official holidays, and the standard working hours recorded by par","cbCailNBcwrIFl1X","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailNBcwrIFl1X","pdf",430896,"English","# Basic Principles\n## Monthly time-sheet checking and signatures\n## Academic staff recording and entitlements\n# Transitional regulation 2024/2025\n## Carryover of negative working hours balance\n## Compensation rules after 30 June 2025\n## Carryover notes for positive/negative balances and vacation\n# Compensation for extra hours\n## Vacation-first principle and compensation days\n## Prohibited interruptions and example scenarios\n## Special rule for year-end 2024/2025\n# Note on regular working time\n# Technical Requirements\n## Microsoft Excel for Mac\n## Microsoft Excel for Windows\n## OpenOffice/LibreOffice\n## General language settings","[{\"question\":\"Who must keep and sign off an employee time sheet at UZH, and how often?\",\"answer\":\"Administrative and technical staff must keep an employee time sheet and it must be checked and signed off by their line manager on a monthly basis.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the year-end transitional carryover limits for negative working hours in 2024/2025?\",\"answer\":\"As of 31 December 2024, a negative working hours balance of no more than 119 hours and 24 minutes may be carried over.
