Back to Policies and Procedures Official Workweek and Hours of Work For the purpose of calculating hours worked, compensation, overtime and overtime compensation the official SEU workweek is from Sunday through Saturday. Absences for jury duty, family funeral, holidays or University approved bad weather days will count as time worked for the purpose of calculating overtime pay. Absences for annual leave or sick leave do not count in determining the number of hours worked. Charges to annual or sick leave in any one workweek will be offset by hours worked that week in excess of the employee's normal schedule. Unless the signed timesheet indicates otherwise, annual leave charges will be reduced, then sick leave charges by hours worked in excess of normal.
Employees work at such times as directed by their supervisor.
The established hours of full-time employees are generally 40 hours per week. For most regular full-time employees, this is 8 hours per business day including two 10 minute rest breaks. Part-time employees who are scheduled to work four hours or more but less than a full day may receive one paid 10 minute rest break. Paid rest breaks cannot be accumulated for use at a later date nor used to shorten the regular workday. In all instances, the utilization of rest breaks is subject to the workload demands of the organizational unit.
