[quote=Anonymous]"Time card fraud" is an easy shortcut to getting rid of a targeted employee. They look at your timecard first to see if they can use it to easily get rid of a non-crony employee. On the other hand, it may have no consequences:

"An SEC Employee and Supervisor Failed
To Follow Time and Attendance Policies
We received an anonymous complaint alleging that an SEC employee committed time and attendance fraud, and that the employee’s supervisor had allowed the fraud by approving the employee’s timesheets. The anonymous complainant also alleged that the employee and the supervisor may have had an intimate relationship. We found that between July 3, 2018, and June 19, 2019, the
employee failed to follow SEC Administrative
Regulation (SECR) 6-2, Time and Attendance
Processing. Specifically, on six occasions between July 3, 2018, and June 19, 2019, the employee recorded on their timesheet that they worked from the office, but records indicated that the employee did not enter the SEC building on those days. The employee told us that they worked from home on
those days and provided email records for some of those days that demonstrated work performed during that time. During that same period, we found that the employee recorded in webTA that they had worked in the office on 9 additional days in which records indicate that the employee departed the SEC building before completing their tour of duty. We identified a discrepancy of 29 hours of time that the employee reported being in the office when they were not. The employee told us that on those days the employee departed the office early and resumed working from home
to complete their work hours. We could not
determine whether the employee actually worked the discrepant 29 hours. We also found that the employee’s supervisor granted the employee flexibility in their work schedule, including allowing the employee to telework ad hoc and to occasionally leave the office early and complete the work day by teleworking from home. However, we found that the supervisor failed to comply with SECR 6-2 by not properly reviewing the  employee’s reported hours and work location for reasonableness and accuracy in webTA. We found no evidence that the employee and the supervisor had an intimate relationship. On July 9, 2021, we presented the facts of this case to the appropriate USAO, and the matter was declined for prosecution on the same date."[/quote]
