:confused: I am a salary/exempt employee although my pay stub shows an hourly rate of pay. Some days I may work 8 hours and some days may range from 4-20 hours of worked time. I frequently work weekends, but am compensated with time off during the week. I never work less than 40 hours/week. My employer insists that I fill out a time sheet listing 8 hours/day, Monday-Friday. I'm uncomfortable with this as I feel I am falsifying records. Should I be concerned?

I would not be overly concerned. There is no law requiring that exempt employees record their time worked at all, although neither does the law prohibit the employer from requiring it. The only time it could possibly be an issue is if it were determined at a later date that you were misclassifed as an exempt employee and should have been nonexempt, thereby entitling you to overtime pay. I would keep my own records, off site, just to be on the safe side.

Not unless your pay is affected, which as an exempt employee it shouldn't be.
