Hours Increase to Select Part-Time Classified Positions


With the increasing difficulty in recruiting and retaining qualified part-time classified assistants, assistants working in designated positions are now allowed to work up to 25 hours/week, with principal/director approval. School funds must be used to pay the additional hours worked.

Positions Eligible for 25 Hours/week

  • Classroom Assistants
  • Office Assistants 

Funding

  • Only approved funding sources may be used to increase hours.
    • Classroom Assistants (i.e. In-Lieu Funds, Trustlands or Title I)
    • Office Assistants (i.e. In-Lieu Funds) 

Restrictions

  • All hours worked must be in the same job title. Positions may not be combined (i.e. office/classroom or classroom/Special Education) to avoid pay discrepancies between positions.
  • Assistants who work 25 hours/week will not be allowed to substitute teach.

Examples

  • Classroom assistant (17 hours “0050” plus eight hours Trustlands)
  • Classroom assistant (15 hours Title I plus 10 hours In-Lieu Funds)
  • Office assistant (17 hours “0050” plus eight hours In-Lieu Funds) 

Implementation

  • Submit a change form to HR to increase hours up to 25/week (.625 FTE).
    • The change form must indicate which budget(s) will be used and the percentage for each budget.
  • All hours worked will be paid according to the budget percentage entered in Skyward, regardless of the percentage of time worked out of each budget during the month.
  • Only one position will be used in TrueTime. TrueTime must be used to track all hours worked.

If you have any questions, please contact Human Resources at 801-567-8150.

Dear Licensed and Classified Employees,

In accordance with DP326 NEG and DP324 NEG, participation in the Employee-Funded Sick Leave Bank requires an employee to annually donate one day of accumulated sick leave into the Sick Leave Bank.  The Employee-Funded Sick Leave Bank is not intended to be used for in-and-out absences, elective medical procedures or other medical care that could be scheduled during non-contract time.

Employees wishing to opt out of participation in the Employee-Funded Sick Leave Bank must log in to their Employee Access and complete the opt out process no later than September 1st.  This opt out request must be submitted annually.

*First year classified and all hourly employees are not eligible for sick bank. Therefore, a sick bank day will not be deducted (if applicable).  Please be aware that policies and eligibility requirements for Licensed (DP324 NEG) and Classified (DP326 NEG) employees are different.  These and other District policies are available for review at http://policymanual.jordandistrict.org/.
