1.14   Direct Employment of Temporary Employees

In some circumstances, a department needs increased staffing for a limited period of time. Hiring a temporary employee may be an appropriate solution to this situation. Temporary personnel are regarded as at-will employees, are supervised by a regular College employee at all times, and are only eligible to receive statutory benefits such as unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation and social security. The department head notifies the Employment Manager of the need and the location of the funding source for compensating the individual. Candidates are informed by the supervisor that, if hired, their status will be “temporary”, that is, they may not work more than 950 hours in any twelve month period and they are not eligible for College benefits.
