Contract periods must be in concert with the funding source from which the employee's salary is paid, e.g., September through August or other applicable period. This arrangement eliminates potential problems in providing benefits to employees that would occur if no payment was made to certain employees during the off quarter. The contract period notwithstanding, employee's compensation will be spread equally in accordance with the period selected. College procedures evidence compliance with this System Operating Standard. Employment Faculty contracts exist in personnel files for each employee.
Contract documents are considerate and mutually beneficial for the employee and the college.
