One of my coworkers often comes to work late or leaves early, but records a full day. The other day, I asked him about it. He shrugged and told me to worry about my own timecard. I don’t want to get him in trouble, but feel like this might be a Code violation. What should I do?

A: You should report this conduct because timekeeping fraud and failure to perform work is a Code violation that could result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination. Employees are responsible for accurately and diligently recording their time. Our Company uses timekeeping data to generate valuable financial and strategic information. Failing to report time honestly and accurately not only means that our Company can’t rely on this information for planning, but also means that the records Spirit files publicly may be false. Employees may be directed by management to clock in/out as well as labor clocking. If you have any questions about maintaining or submitting records of any sort, please speak with your supervisor or the Ethics Officer.
