The job request must be approved in Handshake before hiring a work-study employee. Each academic college and some larger departments have a work-study delegate.

• The supervisor creating the job request will review applicants, interview, and hire.
  Please notify our office if there is a change in supervisors.
• Hiring of work-study students must not result in the displacement of regularly employed workers.
  It is the intent of the program to create new and expanded job opportunities. Replacing a full-time employee whose position was eliminated (for any reason) with a student employee paid with work study funds is prohibited.     

Pay rates should follow guidelines for IH pay rates. The supervisor is responsible for determining the pay rate and providing raises when appropriate. Pay rates should be determined by the type of work, performance, skills, and experience, not the size of the student's work-study award. Minimum wage is $7.25.

Students are expected to arrange a schedule with their supervisor and adhere to it. If they are unable to work they should contact their supervisor. Per federal regulation "a work-study student is to be paid an hour of pay for an hour of work." There are no paid lunch hours, study hours, holidays, sick leaves, vacations, etc. Students are allowed the same morning and/or afternoon breaks as regular employees. A student should not work more than 40 hours in a week, total of all 果冻传媒麻豆社 employment. It is the responsibility of the supervisor to keep track of earnings and award balances to ensure the student does not work over the amount awarded.

Students are expected to give punctual, efficient and cooperative performances. Those who do not perform in such a manner may have their work-study job terminated. Please email finaid-workstudy@uidaho.edu if problems arise that cannot be resolved within your office. Please include the student's name, ID number and the reasons for termination. The student should have been previously warned and given a reasonable time period to correct the problem before termination.

Clear instruction with regard to assigned duties and expectations should be given by the supervisor. When supervision is lacking or when it does not result in a cooperative attitude, the work-study coordinator should be contacted.

Hours worked will be entered in MyUI Web Time Entry. The MyUI system counts time worked in hundredths of an hour: 2 hours 15 minutes = 2.25 (rounded to the nearest hundredth of an hour).

Due to federal work-study program audit requirements, the Payroll office is required to keep electronic time sheets for five years.

Supervisors who are not familiar with the electronic time sheet process can view a tutorial or access the web time and leave entry training manual.

A student may not exceed their award amount. The department should not approve hours that will result in an overage of the work-study award. For example: If the student has enough remaining to cover 20 hours and 30 hours were worked, only 20 hours should be submitted on the work-study budget, the remaining 10 hours should be paid from your IH account. You will need to request a new IH EPAF for future earnings and terminate the work-study EPAF.

Please do not add a work-study budget to an existing IH time slip. This will generate a report in Payroll, and they automatically revert the hours back to the IH budget. A student cannot be paid from work-study funds until all paperwork and approvals are finished. A student must have a Work Authorization Card from the Human Resources office before beginning work. The student must renew their Work Authorization Card every three years.

USE SEPARATE TIME SHEETS FOR WORK-STUDY AND IH EARNINGS.

A department may not submit retroactive hours for a student after June 1 for the fiscal year. Any hours submitted after June 1 will be billed to the departmental IH account.

Please email finaid-workstudy@uidaho.edu with your student employees V# and full name.
