Working-time records for Romanian teams

Track Romanian work hours

Use this page to organize a Romanian workday into clear time entries: employee, date, start time, end time, breaks, project, task, and notes. Romanian employers must keep daily records at the workplace for each employee, showing the start and end of the working schedule, and make those records available to labor inspectors on request.

Mobile and home-based employees need the same discipline, with daily records kept under written arrangements agreed with the employees. For project teams, that means a weekly total alone is incomplete. A usable record shows the working day, the actual span of work, and the work category that payroll, management, or a client invoice needs.

Build the right time record

Start with the legal record, then add operational detail. Romania's Labour Code sets normal full-time working time at 8 hours per day and 40 hours per week. Legal working time, including overtime, may not exceed 48 hours per week, subject to the allowed averaging and collective-bargaining exceptions. Those limits make daily entries more useful than broad weekly summaries.

A practical entry can read: Monday, 09:00 to 17:30, 30-minute break, Client A onboarding, 8 working hours, RON billing rate applied separately. Keep the payroll record and the billing rate distinct. The hours support employment review; the rate supports invoicing. Mixing them too early creates errors when non-billable work, internal meetings, or leave appear in the same week.

Separate time from monitoring

Romanian time tracking should record working time without turning every activity signal into surveillance. Employee personal data processing in Romania is governed by the GDPR and Romanian Law 190/2018. Electronic communications or video monitoring at work based on legitimate interests requires advance employee information, consultation with employee representatives or the union, and a less intrusive method check.

Time entries should show the work schedule and the task or project context. They should not default to screenshots, video feeds, or message monitoring. Storage for electronic communications or video monitoring is generally no more than 30 days unless a legal or strong justification supports a longer period. Keep the workflow focused on time records, approvals, and exceptions.

Move from totals to workflow

A one-off weekly time total works for a quick check, a client estimate, or a small internal reconciliation. It stops working once several employees, projects, night work, overtime consent, paid time off, and payroll review enter the same process. Romania also uses Romanian as the official language and the Romanian leu, RON, so local records need readable labels and RON-denominated billing or payroll fields.

Everhour fits the managed workflow when tracked time needs to feed timesheets, reports, budgets, invoices, or payroll review. Teams can use timers or manual entries, track against tasks and projects, apply approvals, lock completed periods, send reminders, and use timer rules before time reaches billing or payroll.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Romania require daily time records for employees?

Yes. Romanian employers must keep daily records of hours worked by each employee, showing the start and end of the working schedule. Those records must be kept at the workplace and shown to labor inspectors on request. Mobile and home-based employees need daily records under written arrangements agreed with the employees.

Should Romanian time records show only total hours?

Total hours alone leave out required schedule detail. A compliant Romanian working-time record needs the start and end of the working schedule for each employee. Project, task, break, and billing details can be added for operations, but they do not replace the daily start and end time record.

Which Romanian overtime details belong in a time workflow?

A Romanian overtime workflow should identify work outside normal weekly working time, employee agreement where required, and whether compensation is paid time off or salary supplement. Overtime must be compensated with paid time off within 90 calendar days when available. If that is not possible, the supplement cannot be less than 75% of base salary.

Can night work be tracked like regular work in Romania?

Night work needs a separate flag because Romanian rules define night work as work between 22:00 and 06:00. Qualifying night employees receive either a one-hour reduction from the normal working day or a 25% base-salary premium when at least 3 night hours are worked in normal working time.

Which privacy mistake creates risk in Romanian time tracking?

The common mistake is treating time tracking as permission for broad employee monitoring. GDPR and Romanian Law 190/2018 apply to employee personal data. Electronic communications or video monitoring based on legitimate interests requires advance notice, consultation, a prevailing interest, and proof that less intrusive methods have not worked.

How does Everhour Time Tracking support Romanian teams?

Everhour Time Tracking captures task and project hours through live timers or manual entries, then feeds timesheets, reporting, budgeting, invoicing, and payroll review. Admins can use approvals, locked periods, reminders, and timer rules so reviewed time moves into the next workflow with fewer corrections.

Keep Romanian time records organized

Track approved hours by task, project, and person before payroll or billing review. Everhour gives teams timer-based and manual time tracking that supports cleaner Romanian timesheets.
