Mandatory daily time-tracking log for EVERY employee (ET art. 34.9, RD-ley 8/2019) — must be kept for 4 years; a missing or falsified record is an infracción grave under the LISOS (€751–7,500 per company/centre). The "digital-only, real-time ITSS access" reform was NOT in force as of July 2026 (negative dictamen of the Consejo de Estado, 23.03.2026) — keep both a paper/spreadsheet record and a digital-ready format.

DAILY WORKING-TIME RECORD (REGISTRO DE JORNADA)
Employer: Employer name Employee: Employee name Date: Date
1. LEGAL BASIS AND SCOPE 1.1. Under art. 34.9 of the Estatuto de los Trabajadores and RD-ley 8/2019, EVERY employer — regardless of headcount or the employee's working-time arrangement (full-time, part-time, fijo-discontinuo) — must keep a daily record of the actual start and end time of each employee's working day. 1.2. ⚠️ Part-time (tiempo parcial) records are scrutinised most heavily by the Inspección de Trabajo (ITSS): without a proper registro de jornada, the law PRESUMES the employee worked full-time, with back-pay consequences for the employer.
2. RECORD FOR THIS DAY 2.1. Start time: Start time (hora de inicio). End time: End time (hora de fin). 2.2. Breaks: Breaks (pausas) 2.3. Total hours worked: Total hours worked 2.4. Format used: Record format
3. ⚠️ PENDING REFORM — STATUS AS OF JULY 2026 3.1. A reform requiring an exclusively DIGITAL, interoperable record with REAL-TIME remote access for the ITSS, and per-worker sanctions of up to €10,000, was proposed but is NOT yet in force: the Consejo de Estado issued a negative dictamen on 23.03.2026 and the Real Decreto has not been published in the BOE. The 2019 regime (this template) remains in force. Keep this record ready to migrate to a digital format once the reform is enacted.
4. SANCTIONS 4.1. Missing or falsified records: infracción grave (LISOS art. 7.5), €751–7,500 per company/ centre; concealed overtime or unpaid hours are separately sanctionable, up to €225,018 for infracciones muy graves.
5. RETENTION 5.1. Retention note
Employee confirmation: Employee signature confirmation Responsible person: Responsible person signature confirmation

In Catalonia, under the Codi de consum de Catalunya (Ley 22/2010, art. 128-1), documents intended for consumers — price lists, terms of sale, mandatory notices — must be available at least in Catalan; where a Catalan-language version of this document is also used, that version prevails in case of conflict for consumers in Catalonia.
