Student Assistant/Trainee Classifications Student Assistants/Trainees may be assigned to the following job classifications. Students should consult with their hiring department(s) to ensure that hours worked are posted against the appropriate job(s).

1. TIME REPORTING CONVERSION CHART:

The conversion chart for reporting partial hours worked on the Timesheet is shown in the conversion chart. All partial hours worked must be reported to the tenths of an hour. For example, student starts work at 8:00 a.m. and ends at 10:15 a.m., report 2.30 hours for the day and not 2.25 hours. Time that is reported to the hundredths of an hour will not generate pay (e.g. 2.25).

2. WORK HOURS:

Student Assistants/Trainees are allowed to work up to 20 hours per week during the school year. This weekly maximum applies to all Student Assistants/Trainees, including those holding multiple student job classifications. Hours from all positions are combined to determine the weekly maximum. Students holding more than one job should inform their departments of the multiple appointments to ensure that all hours worked do not exceed the weekly maximum. Exceptions to this policy require approval from the department Financial Manager and/or the Work Study Office for work study classifications; exceptions are only granted for emergency situations.
When school is not in session during semester breaks, Student Assistants may work up to a maximum of 40 hours per week, but may not be scheduled to work overtime. Overtime is defined as more than 40 hours per week.

3. WORK STUDY JOBS:

Student positions are not eligible for overtime. Overtime is defined as hours exceeding 40 hours per week. A schedule may exceed 8 hours per day provided the total for the week does not exceed 40 hours.
