# timesheets.listRates

Labor cost rates in force now: the shop default and each worker's own, plus upcoming ones. Needs see_costs. A field worker sees only their own and the shop default.

|  |  |
|---|---|
| Who | Agents can call this |
| REST | `GET /v1/timesheets/rates` |
| MCP tool | `timesheets_listRates` |
| Writes | no |
| Area | [Field work (checklists, forms, time, notes, change orders, subcontractors)](https://doingwork.work/docs/reference/#field-work-checklists-forms-time-notes-change-orders-subcontractors) |

## When to use it

Keep the crew's time: timesheets.clockIn starts a clock on a job (category work) or for drive, shop or break time, and timesheets.clockOut stops it; one clock runs per person per shop (pass stop_running to switch). Forgotten time goes in with timesheets.add (start and end, at most 24 hours per entry); time never overlaps the same person's other time.

## What to tell the owner

Tell them what you found in plain words. Don't read back raw fields.

| Field | Type | Required |
|---|---|---|
| `shop_id` | string (uuid) | yes |
