# Timeclock Manual Clockouts Warning

## Manual clockouts create legal liability for the company.

Each time a supervisor or member of HR manually clocks-out an employee, instead of the employee doing it themself, it creates a risk that the employee may file a wage claim.

Likewise when a member of HR edits an employee's timecard to correct an incorrect time.

To protect the company from that risk, a company policy is needed which specifies how a manual clockout is to be attested. The attestation would defend the company against any wage claims brought on grounds of timeclock tampering.

### "Needs Attention" Flags

AngelTrack will automatically raise the ![Flag.small.yellow](https://support.angeltrack.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Flag.small.yellow.png?width=16&height=20&name=Flag.small.yellow.png) "Needs Attention" flag on any timeclock entry that was manually clocked-out, to remind you that a signed attestation may be required. You can click it to lower the flag once that's taken care of.

### Clear it With Your Legal Team First

Labor laws vary by state, so we urge you to consult legal counsel when developing your manual clockouts policy.
