HR Glossary

What is Timesheet?

A record documenting the hours an employee has worked during a specific pay period, used to calculate wages, track project costs, and maintain compliance with labor regulations.

Why it matters in hiring

Timesheet comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
