About Kose
The Kansas Organization of State Employees (KOSE) is a union for executive branch state employees, and the largest union of state employees in Kansas. All non-supervisory, non-confidential classified employees in the executive branch of Kansas state government (exclusive of higher education) are eligible to join KOSE.
KOSE’s mission is to make real improvements on issues that matter to state employees, such as compensation, pay equity, healthcare and retirement security, workplace safety, career development, and having a voice on the job. KOSE’s priorities will be driven by the ideas and input of KOSE members. That’s why all eligible state employees are encouraged to join KOSE and get involved.

New Time Keeping System
and Problems at 24 Hour Facilities
The
KOSE office has been made aware that there are issues related to the new time
keeping system, in particular at our 24 hour facilities.
You
need to know that you must be paid for all hours worked. If any problems
arise first contact your manager to fix the problem. If they do not fix it,
contact HR and let them know. If they do not fix your
issue or tell you that you were not clocked in correctly and they therefore are
not going to pay you, contact a KOSE steward or the KOSE office. They must pay you
for all hours worked, that is federal law. You may
also contact the following;

Remember
if you don’t let someone know, it can’t be fixed.
