The European Grant Agreement stipulates that employees paid under EU projects must register their productive time consumption on a monthly basis, and employees and grant recipients must sign the monthly statement. In connection with EU audits, the Research Support Office (RSO) has learned that the European Commission is interested in the productive time consumption, which changes from year to year.

The productive hours for a full-time employment at AU are calculated as follows:

Time registration template

You can find the template on the RSO webpage.

How to fill in the template

When using the template, your point of reference is the productive hours. You only enter the actual daily productive hours into the template. You do this per day and per workpackage.

The max. annualproductive hours is a maximum, however flextime is allowed as long as it adheres to regulations on the subject at your institute.If you are not working due to vacation days (paid or unpaid), special holiday days, sick days, childcare days, paid or unpaid leave of absence,the reason for the absencecan be written into the template. These days (hours) of absence are, however not part of the monthly time consumption, which might then be different from the budgeted hours from the application and grant agreement negotioationphase.
