How do we allocate time for the officers who perform multiple tasks during the reporting period?
A. As stated in the instructions for the revised Form LM-2, on Line (I) of Schedule 11 enter the estimated percentage of time spent by the officer on activities that fall within Schedules 15 through 19 in the box by that schedule. You may round to the nearest 10%. When the time reported by an individual in an activity is less than 5% of his or her total work time, the officer’s best estimate to the nearest percentage should be reported rather than rounding to zero. The total must equal 100%. It is understood that these figures may be imprecise. For instance, the president of an intermediate body may spend four months working on a multi-state contract negotiation, two months lobbying against a state referendum, two more months on an organizing drive, while also keeping up with his other duties as president. The president’s good-faith estimate might be based on adding together the four months spent in contract negotiations and the two months on the organizing drive and allocating the six
