(5) Time of day and day of week on which the employee's workweek begins. If the employee is part of a workforce or employed in or by an establishment all of whose workers have a workweek beginning at the same time on the same day, a single notation of the time of the day and beginning day of the workweek for the whole workforce or establishment will suffice. If, however, any employee or group of employees has a workweek beginning and ending at a different time, a separate notation shall then be kept for that employee or group of employees;

(9) Total additions to or deductions from wages paid each pay period. Every employer making additions to or deductions from wages shall also maintain a record of the dates, amounts, and nature of the items which make up the total additions and deductions;
(10) Total wages paid each pay period;
(11) Date of payment and the pay period covered by payment;
(12) Paid sick leave accruals each month, and any unused paid sick leave available for use by an employee;
(13) Paid sick leave reductions each month including, but not limited to: Paid sick leave used by an employee, paid sick leave donated to a co-worker through a shared leave program, or paid sick leave not carried over to the following year ("year" as defined in WAC 296-128-620(6));
(14) Paid sick leave payments to construction workers covered by a collective bargaining agreement before usage as provided under RCW 49.46.180, and any remaining leave which remains after payment;
(15) The date of commencement of their employment, as defined in WAC 296-128-600(2);
