Security Time Keeping

We have a new timekeeping system called Belfry. This system will be used for clocking in/out, tracking your hours, and managing your schedule. Please review the information below carefully and take the required steps before your next shift.

Getting Started:

When you clock in for a shift, you can either access Belfry via the app on the site phone, or you can download the Belfry mobile app (recommended).

 Clock-In Rules:

If you clock in late, rounding may adjust your time forward or backward.

Clock-Out Rules: 

  • You must clock out at the end of your shift

  • The system will automatically clock you out 5 minutes after your shift ends

  • All time entries are rounded to the nearest 15 minutes

 Important:

  • If you manually clock out, you will:

    • Confirm (attest) your time

    • Have the ability to add a note if something is incorrect

  • If you are automatically clocked out:

    • You will not be able to attest

    • You will not be able to add a note

    • The shift will be flagged for follow-up

Daily Review Requirement: 

You are responsible for:

  • Reviewing your time entries each day

  • Confirming accuracy when prompted

  • Addressing any issues immediately

Time Corrections (Required Process): 

If your time is incorrect:

  • If you manually clock out → add a note in Belfry at that time

  • If you are auto clocked-out or miss something →

    • You must provide written verification through:

      • Text, or 

      • Email 

All time corrections must be documented for transparency and compliance.

Breaks and Lunches: 

  • You must clock out for lunch when relieved from duty

  • Missed lunches will be flagged and must be confirmed

If you forget:

·       Report it when prompted or via written (text/email) communication

Remember: Working through lunch without prior approval may result in discipline.

Staying Late / Schedule Changes: 

If you need to stay beyond your shift:

  • Notify your supervisor immediately

  • The shift must be updated by a supervisor

Do not assume your time will be adjusted without approval.

Key Expectations:

  • Clock in/out within allowed timeframes

  • Review your time daily

I forgot to clock out for lunch—what should I do?
Report it when prompted or via text or email so it can be documented and corrected.
