Timesheets must be completed by Directly Incurred (DI) staff who are part鈥慶harged to a Faraday Institution award i.e. staff who split their time across more than one award or funding source within a month. DI staff typically include:
- Research staff (researchers, clinical research fellows, research nurses)
- Fellows
- Project-specific non-research staff (e.g. technicians, clerical roles)
DI staff who work 100% of their time on a single Faraday Institution award do not need to complete timesheets or any other form of time record.
Time for Principal Investigators and Co鈥慖nvestigators is treated as Directly Allocated (DA) by the Faraday Institution. DA staff do not need to complete timesheets or any form of time recording.
Further information on these roles and the definitions of DI and DA cost categories is available on the Research Support and Compliance Division’s costings webpage: Costing | Research and Innovation | Imperial
