Timekeeping is the process of tracking and reporting hours worked and leave time taken. On campus, Electronic Timekeeping was implemented to replace paper-based, legacy timekeeping systems and processes.

To log into Timekeeping, go to timekeeping.ucsb.edu and click the login button. Enter your UCSB netID and password on the Single Sign-On (SSO) screen, and authenticate through Duo if prompted.

Payroll calendars and accrual charts are published by UCSB HR. You can find them on HR's Workforce Administration page.

You can also find the UCPath Production Processing Schedule here, or by navigating to Quicklinks -> Payroll Resources in UCPath. 

Employees who require assistance using Timekeeping should first contact their manager or supervisor.
