There are a total of 500 employees at the site; 450 non-exempt employees who clock in and out each day, and 50 exempt employees who do not use a time clock and are paid a standard weekly salary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">B.

Maintained by two full-time payroll administrators, reporting to one payroll manager<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">C. Human resource records are primarily paper-based:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. Employee personnel files are maintained in file folders<br>2.
