Requests for flex-time scheduling will be given serious consideration and should be presented to your supervisor or department head for approval. Non-exempt employees required to work extra hours on a given workday, may be permitted or asked to take an equal number of hours off within the same work week in order not to exceed 40 hours of work per week. However, time off in lieu of overtime pay must be taken within the same pay period and must have the advance approval of your supervisor. If the university receives a legally-binding garnishment for the collection of an employee's debt to a third party, the university will withhold from the employee's paycheck the appropriate amount prescribed by law until the debt is paid in full. Employees who are encountering budgetary or financial difficulties are strongly encouraged to contact the employee assistance program for free and confidential budget counseling.
Pay is determined, in great part, by the job classification of the position occupied by an employee.
Job duties and responsibilities of each job are evaluated via the job evaluation system which provides equitable grouping of similar jobs to determine market pay ranges. These factors relate to the requirements of the job itself, not to the credentials or performance of the person in the position. When significant changes occur, the employee or the employee's supervisor may request a classification review from the Department of Human Resources. A written Position Evaluation Questionnaire must be completed and submitted to the Department of Human Resources to initiate the review. The involvement of the supervisor and the employee regarding duties performed and significant changes in the job is normally requested.
