Hourly Staff
The normal workweek for full-time hourly staff employees is 40 hours, usually scheduled 8 hours per day, Monday through Friday. The normal workday for office staff on the Main Campus is scheduled from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with a one-hour (unpaid, duty-free, uninterrupted) lunch period. The normal workday for office staff at off campus locations may vary due to the different needs and schedules at these sites. This schedule does not apply to part-time employees or to those without a regularly scheduled workday. Hours worked each day must be accurately reported on the timesheet. Working in excess of regular hours requires prior authorization from the supervisor.
Part-time employees who work a full day are entitled to the same (unpaid, duty-free, uninterrupted) lunch period and breaks as full-time employees. Part-time employees may take fifteen minutes of break time for any daily work schedule exceeding four hours.
Any change in the employee's regular work schedule must be approved by the supervisor in advance of the change. Employees are asked not to spend lunch and break periods in other offices or areas where other employees may still be working.
Salary Staff
The normal workday for salary staff on the Main Campus is scheduled from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with a one-hour lunch period. The normal workday at off-campus locations may vary due to the different needs and schedules at these sites. (This schedule does not apply to part-time employees or to those without a regularly scheduled workday.) Changes to the times that salary staff are expected to be in the office may be made with management approval. Salary staff are paid for the completion of their job and not the hours it takes to complete the job. Therefore, salaried staff may have professional responsibilities that must be fulfilled at times other than, and in addition to, the regular business hours.
Any salary staff employee who plans on teaching a course or courses during regular working hours must have approval from his/her supervisor and the VP for Academic Affairs before a teaching agreement will be issued.
