Times Clocks go live at the Los Angeles Times

Date: September 30, 2010
From: Chris Avetisian, CFO
Gwen Murakami, SVP Administration
Subject: KRONOS – “Go Live” date
To: All Times employees


Effective October 3, 2010, we will “go live” for our implementation of KRONOS, the new time and attendance system. It is critical that all hourly employees understand how to record time using KRONOS when reporting to work on the first scheduled work day during the upcoming pay period. Just in case, we’re putting up little reminders around the buildings about punching in and out so you won’t forget.

All hourly employees should have a bar code affixed to the back of their Company ID badge. Please see your supervisor ASAP if you are an hourly employee and don’t have a bar code.

We’ll have plenty of resources available to help next week, so don’t panic if you can’t log on, forget your badge, or run into any other problems. We’ve also listed the Help Resources below. Our goal is to have accurate time (and accurate paychecks) for our first pay period using KRONOS which will require cooperation and diligence from everyone.

Please talk to your supervisor if you have any questions. Thanks for your help toward successful KRONOS launch.
