Summer student employees may
need reclassification in May
Students currently working in your department may be classified
as FICA-exempt employees through May 18, 2006, at which time departments
will need to determine if those employees are eligible to continue
in a FICA-exempt student status or need to be changed to OPS via
an ePAF.
If you have students that will be working in your department for
the summer term, you will need to refer to the student’s work
permit to determine which Salary Administration Plan to use for
your job action. Students can obtain a work permit from Student
Employment at S107 Criser Hall, or your department can request one
by calling 392-0296. Students not eligible to receive a work permit
for summer should be changed/hired as OPSN.
Students who will not be working during the summer but will be
returning for the fall semester must be terminated for summer effective
May 18, 2006, and will need to be “hired” for fall via
an ePAF.
If it has been less than one year since the employee’s last
OPS assignment, the department will NOT be required to send new-hire
paperwork. If the person you are hiring has never had an OPS appointment,
you will need to have him or her complete an application and the
new-hire paperwork (I-9, W4, etc). Any background self-disclosures
will be subject to existing background screening protocols.
Questions? Please contact Employment and Classification at 392-4621
(SC 622-4621) or employment@ufl.edu.
