Campus Student Employment

Student Employment Programs

What is Work-Study?

Florida Southern College offers a student employment program which provides part-time employment to undergraduate students. The program introduces students to real life work experience. Students can use the work experience to begin building their professional resume or simply to assist with life expenses. Working on campus often gives students more job flexibility than working at an off-campus job because on-campus employers are usually more understanding of student class schedules and school work.

The College has two types of student employment programs: Federal Work-Study (FWS) and Florida Southern College Work-Study (麻豆社madou WS). Eligible students may not exceed more than 20 total hours of work weekly. This means, if a student holds multiple jobs, the total working hours between all positions combined is 20 hours per week.

Federal Work-Study (FWS)

Federal Work-Study (FWS) is a form of financial aid awarded to students who demonstrate financial need and meet certain eligibility requirements. Each student must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine eligibility for FWS. Students should be sure to mark "yes" to the question on the FAFSA that asks if the student is interested in student employment. If the student has already filed the FAFSA for this year and did not demonstrate interest in FWS but is interested now, he/she should visit the Financial Aid Office (FAO) to determine eligibility. A new FAFSA must be completed each year for continued consideration in the Federal Work Study Program. The total FWS award depends on the application date, the student鈥檚 level of need, and the funding level of the school. Eligibility does not guarantee a student will secure a position.

Florida Southern College Work-Study (麻豆社madou WS)

Florida Southern College Work-Study (麻豆社madou WS) is a financial aid program funded by institutional funds. FWS and 麻豆社madou student employees must continue to meet all eligibility requirements throughout both fall and spring semesters. This includes maintaining full time active enrollment in 麻豆社madou classes and maintaining a 2.0 GPA.

Role of Financial Aid Office

The Financial Aid Office awards student employment funds to students and monitors them for continued eligibility throughout the academic year. Student eligibility can change during the year, which may require that a student鈥檚 award be reduced or cancelled.

Types of Jobs

Students seeking student employment positions apply by contacting the designated hiring supervisor for availability. When the hiring supervisor has an opening and makes an offer of employment to the student the supervisor will notify the office of Financial Aid of the hire. The student then visits the office of Financial Aid to complete employment paperwork. Work may not begin until the student has completed all forms requirements through the office of Financial Aid.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of the types of job opportunities on campus for students when available. The positions include a brief description and qualifications as well as contact information for the hiring supervisor. A full description of the position is available in Financial Aid. If you are interested in working for a department that is not listed here, contact the department鈥檚 Administrative Assistant for availability.

Paperwork Requirements

For Students Who Are New to Campus Employment

Students should be prepared to:

  • Provide student ID.
  • Enroll in 麻豆社madou鈥檚 Direct Deposit program. A voided check is needed in order to complete the enrollment forms. A Direct Deposit letter from the student鈥檚 financial institution with account and routing information may also be accepted. Employees can avoid delay in receiving compensation when enrolling in direct deposit.
  • Provide original, unexpired, documentation that establishes employment eligibility to work in the U.S. (in accordance with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986). A list of acceptable documents for the I-9 form can be found under Downloads. Photocopies cannot be accepted per federal guidelines.


For Returning Student Employees

Students who have previously participated in student employment are not required to complete all new forms every year. However, students are required to complete a new Campus Work Program Agreement form (commonly known as the 鈥淲ork Agreement Form鈥) for the Fall/Spring Term and a separate Work Agreement Form for work performed during Summer Term.

Direct deposit information also needs to be verified as current and updated with the Financial Aid department when changes to banking are made.

Wage and Hour Procedures

Earnings

Students will usually earn the current federal minimum wage, but that amount may be higher depending on where the student works, the type of work that is performed, and the skills needed to perform those jobs. Pay rates higher than the minimum wage are established by the Human Resources Department and are determined by the job being performed. Student earnings are considered taxable income. Student workers will receive a W2 form at the end of the calendar year.

Earnings from 麻豆社madou work study will be included on line 37 of the FAFSA with any other earnings the student has earned from working. FWS earnings are reported on line 44C of the FAFSA.

Hours

The money a student earns cannot exceed their total FWS award. When assigning work hours, the employer will consider the student鈥檚 total award and class schedule. Average work schedules are 6 hours a week. Students are prohibited from working during normally scheduled classes. Work-study hours are flexible. Remember: school is the first priority!

Recording of Time

Student workers are paid bi-weekly and on an hourly rate basis. Hours are reported using the time clock. In a few pre-authorized positions, a time sheet is acceptable. The student worker must accurately record the time they begin and end their work, as well as the beginning and ending time of any meal period. It is the employee鈥檚 responsibility to sign his or her time record to certify the accuracy of all time recorded. The timekeeper for the department will review and then initial the time record before submitting it for payroll processing. In the event of an error in reporting time, employees must immediately report the problem to the department timekeeper. Failure to consistently report time accurately may result in disciplinary action. Also, altering, falsifying, tampering with time records or recording time on another employee鈥檚 time card will result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.

Pay Dates

Bi-weekly employees, including part-time staff members, receive pay every other Friday for work performed and reported for the preceding pay period. If that Friday is a holiday, or the campus is closed, information about distribution of paychecks will be released in advance by the Vice President for Finance and Administration. If the business offices are closed, pay checks and statements will be available on the next business day. Employees can avoid any delay in receiving pay statements or checks when using direct deposit.

Termination and Disciplinary Action Policies

Termination of Employment

When hiring a student employee, the hiring department typically hires for the academic year. There are times, however, when the position must end earlier than originally anticipated. The employee鈥檚 award may have been changed, the employee may resign, or the department may find that it is necessary to end the position because of poor performance, cause or other work-related reasons.

The policies, procedures, and rules set forth are guidelines for administration and supervision. They are not a contract of employment, nor do they guarantee any continuation of employment. This information is not intended to alter in any way the "employment-at-will" relationship of the College and its employees.

Disciplinary Action

Disciplinary action is sometimes used to help employees recognize work performance problems. Although the College is committed to a progressive disciplinary process for the benefit of all employees, the College reserves the right to determine the appropriate discipline for each individual circumstance including immediate termination. Discussions that accompany disciplinary action can also assist the employee in strengthening their performance and achieving job success.

If the College chooses to terminate the employment relationship for cause, examples of reasons for separation include but are not limited to:

  • Recurring unauthorized and unexcused absences
  • Refusal to do work assigned, or refusal to work properly assigned time periods
  • Falsifying entry of hours worked on time records
  • Inability to perform tasks required by the nature of the job after completion of a reasonable training period
  • Violations of the Confidentiality Agreement

Student workers who are terminated for cause, such as those listed above, may permanently lose their ability to work in employment positions on campus. Based upon the sole discretion of the College, a student employee terminated for cause may be subject to the following sanctions:

First Offense

With the first violation for cause as exampled above, the employee may be subjected to immediate termination of employment and may be suspended from working in any other position on campus for the next full semester.

Second Offense

With the second violation for cause as exampled above, the employee may be subject to immediate termination of employment and permanently removed from student employment eligibility.

Note, a full semester is considered the next Fall or Spring semester which immediately follows the date of termination. When a student employee is terminated for cause from a department, he or she may no longer be eligible to work within that department again. If a student is able to maintain eligibility to work in the student employment program all hiring supervisors have access to the student鈥檚 employment record including any disciplinary action. Hiring supervisors retain the right to make hiring decisions based upon a student worker鈥檚 employment record.

A student worker may be discharged immediately or suspended without pay for any serious offense. Examples of serious offenses include, but are not limited to the following: intentional damage to, or theft of College property; assault or threats of violence; possession of illegal weapons or firearms on College premises; sexual harassment; insubordination; falsifying a timecard or falsely reporting time; or drinking alcoholic beverages or using illegal drugs while on the job or on campus.

A student employee鈥檚 failure to provide reasonable notice of absence to the employee鈥檚 supervisor is considered willful misconduct and may result in termination of employment. If a student employee is absent without reporting the absence for three consecutive days, he/she will be considered to have abandoned the job and employment will be terminated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can anyone participate in the Student Employment Program?

All full time students who can provide documentation that establishes employment eligibility to work in the U.S. (in accordance with the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986) and maintain a 2.0 or higher GPA are eligible for acceptance into the student work program. Visit the Financial Aid Office for more information.

Is on-campus student employment assigned to me and am I guaranteed a job?

No. Students have the responsibility of finding and interviewing for jobs on campus and completing all necessary employment forms prior to beginning work.

If I was awarded work study last year, does this mean I will be awarded it this year?

Not necessarily. You must complete the FAFSA each year to be considered for FWS. You can visit the Financial Aid Office to determine eligibility for the subsequent academic year and/or to inquire about 麻豆社madou WS.

How many hours can I work per week?

Twenty (20) hours per week is the maximum recommended for academic reasons 鈥 school work needs to be your first priority. The 20 hour maximum applies to total work hours including when the student worker has more than one job on campus.

Can I change work-study jobs?

Yes, you can, at any point in the academic year. It is recommended that you give your employer at least a two week notice. If you wish to change jobs visit the Financial Aid Office to ensure that all paperwork associated with both the position that you are vacating and the new one you are taking is completed.

Is work study money non-taxable?

Work study earnings are taxable income. If taxes were withheld from your paycheck you might be eligible for a refund depending, of course, on your total annual earnings. It is in your best interest that you file a tax return with the Internal Revenue Service by April 15.

What forms need to be completed?

Initially, students must complete the FAFSA to determine eligibility. Students who have not participated in student employment previously must fill out a W-4, I-9, direct deposit authorization, workers compensation notification, and confidentiality agreement. The completed forms must be returned to the Financial Aid Counselor located in the Financial Aid Office for processing. At that time you will be given a Campus Work Program Agreement that requires your signature and the signature of your supervisor. This form must be returned to Financial Aid in order to be added to the payroll system.

How often will I be paid?

You will be paid bi-weekly through direct deposit to your checking or savings account. If you have chosen to receive a paper paystub, your supervisor will provide it to you. Paystubs can also be viewed on the Portal.

How will I know what is expected of me in my job?

Your supervisor will meet with you and will explain the duties associated with your job, the dress code, scheduled hours, and other details relative to your work in their department. Training and other instruction will also be provided when necessary which will assist you in being successful in your job.

Who do I talk to about a conflict/complaint with my supervisor?

If conflicts arise between the student employee and their supervisor, the supervisor shall make every effort to satisfactorily resolve the issue. Unresolved complaints arising from employment or termination issue may be addressed with the Financial Aid Counselor or the office of Human Resources.

Note: If you have a work study question and do not see it here, please send it via an email to Leyla Oliviera, Financial Aid Counselor, loliveira@flsouthern.edu
