Timekeeping: CalTime & CalKronos

Berkeley Regional Services (BRS) does everything possible to ensure that the bi-weekly and monthly pay is processed accurately and on time. We work closely and partner with Berkeley's Payroll Policy and Controls group to surface and resolve any issues that may occur as quickly as possible.

Depending on your employee group, you will use either CalTime or the new CalKronos system to track your time and leave.
