To whom must the TAMS form be submitted for use of the time pool?

• A. Sheriff or designee
• B. HR Director
• C. Time Pool Manager
• D. Union President

Answer: (A)

The authority to approve use of the time pool rests with the Sheriff or their designee. The TAMS form goes to that person because they have the final say on time-off allocations and staffing implications, ensuring proper coverage and payroll accuracy. The HR Director handles personnel records and policies, not individual time pool approvals. A Time Pool Manager may process and track requests, but doesn’t grant final approval. The Union President isn’t involved in operational approvals of employee time. Following this route keeps accountability and consistent application of the time pool rules.
