A design agency timesheet should capture the work people performed during the week, grouped in a way that matches how the agency manages clients and projects. The practical outcome is a reviewable record: who worked, which client or internal project received the time, which task or phase the time belongs to, and whether the time is billable.
For U.S. payroll records, the FLSA requires covered employers to keep accurate records for non-exempt workers, including hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek. The law does not require one specific timekeeping form or system. A complete and accurate timesheet format works when it preserves the required time records and supports the agency's billing workflow.
Agency work often mixes client delivery with internal work. A clean timesheet separates billable client time from non-billable time such as internal meetings, project planning, training, or agency operations. That split protects client invoices from inflated totals and gives managers a clearer view of where the team's week went.
Use client, project, task, date, person, hours, and billable status as the core fields. U.S. users normally keep payroll and billing rate fields in U.S. dollars. A line such as "Client A, website refresh, homepage revisions, 3.25 hours, billable" gives enough detail for billing review without burying the manager in unnecessary notes.
A weekly agency timesheet should roll daily entries into a fixed workweek, because FLSA overtime for covered non-exempt employees is measured over a workweek, not across a month or two-week average. A workweek is a fixed period of 168 hours, made of seven consecutive 24-hour periods.
Covered non-exempt employees must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek at not less than one and one-half times the employee's regular rate of pay. The FLSA does not require premium pay solely because work happened on Saturday, Sunday, a holiday, or a regular rest day unless weekly overtime is triggered or another law or agreement applies.
A one-off timesheet is enough for a small job, a short freelance engagement, or a quick weekly total before a manager reviews the numbers. It works best when one person enters time promptly, applies the same client and task labels each week, and stores the completed file with payroll or billing records.
A managed workflow becomes necessary when several designers track work across multiple clients, managers approve time, and invoices or payroll depend on the same data. Everhour Time Tracking lets people use timers or manual entries against tasks and projects, then sends those records into timesheets, reporting, budgeting, invoicing, and payroll review with approvals, reminders, locked periods, and timer rules.

A design agency timesheet should include the person, date, client, project, task or phase, hours worked, billable status, and any approval status used by the agency. For U.S. payroll records, covered employers must keep daily hours worked and total hours worked each workweek for non-exempt workers covered by the FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions.
Yes. Client work and internal work should use separate billable status or category fields so managers can review utilization, prepare invoices, and understand non-billable load. A single undifferentiated hour total forces billing and operations teams to reconstruct the week later, which creates avoidable review work.
A weekly timesheet can support payroll records when it includes the daily hours worked and total hours worked each workweek for covered non-exempt workers. The FLSA allows any complete and accurate timekeeping method. Employers must preserve payroll records for at least three years and basic time and earnings records for at least two years.
No. Under the federal baseline, covered non-exempt employees receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek. The FLSA does not require overtime premium pay solely for Saturday, Sunday, holiday, or regular rest-day work unless the weekly overtime rule is triggered or another law, policy, contract, or agreement applies.
The most common agency mistake is recording hours without a client, project, task, or billable status. A manager then cannot tell whether the time belongs on an invoice, an internal budget, or a payroll-only record. A short task label and a billable flag prevent most end-of-week cleanup.
Everhour Time Tracking captures task and project hours through live timers or manual entries, including work logged inside supported project tools such as Asana, ClickUp, GitHub, Jira, Monday, Notion, Trello, and Basecamp. Those entries feed timesheets, reports, budgets, invoices, and payroll review.
Everhour supports timesheet approvals and locked periods. Managers can approve, reject, or partially approve submitted time, and approved time stays locked for regular members. That workflow gives agencies a clearer approval trail before billing, payroll, or reporting uses the hours.
Track project and task hours as work happens, then review approved timesheets before billing or payroll. Everhour connects agency time records to cleaner billing and payroll review.
