Fall 2008 CHICAGO-KENT STUDENT HIRING PROCEDURES (posted 8/12/08)

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

If you wish to have your current Summer Student Assistant continue for the fall semester, now is the time to complete a new Payroll Authorization (P/A). The current P/A on file expires as of August 08/23/2008. A new P/A must be completed with Effective Date: 08/24/2008.

The End Date can be either:

and/or if you are unsure whether to hire him/her through the end of the school year).

05/31/2009 (you want to hire students for the school year)

Failure to complete a P/A to rehire the student will result in him/her being removed from Payroll.

Remember, during the school year when classes are in session a full-time student can only work a maximum of 20 hours/week. During the Christmas/New Year Holiday break, the week of spring break and during the summer session, students are allowed to work a maximum of 40 hours/week.
