Kronos

The West Virginia State University Payroll Department is a dedicated team of professionals committed to paying university employees on time and accurately while in compliance with federal and state regulations.
 

Kronos is the Time Reporting System used for submitting all staff, including temporary employee, work-study, and student employee hours, and also for faculty who accrue leave to the WVSU Payroll Department. Kronos is an industry leader and well–recognized in the field of workforce management systems.
 

WVSU complies as an employer with the State of West Virginia rules in keeping accurate time records reflecting when employees begin and end each work period, including in and out time recorded for meal breaks. The Kronos Web timecard system is an efficient tool for time keeping compliance, as it will automatically record holidays, calculate total hours and overtime, in addition to displaying accrued sick and vacation balances.
 

This page provides you with useful information to facilitate your understanding of the Kronos system. In order to use the Kronos leave management system and time keeping system, employees and supervisors must have myApps accounts.  The link to create a myApps account can be found here.
