Payroll & Compensation

Intermittent Staff

Skip Navigation Text.

Intermittent staff are paid on an hourly or daily basis, depending on their appointment type. Time worked is reported on an attendance summary under the “Hours Worked” row, and submitted to Payroll Services following the first of each month. Pay is issued by the 10th of each month, as long as the attendance summary is received on time.

When completing the attendance summary, please follow the state pay calendar. Here is a list of the 2011 pay periods:

Personal Holiday

Intermittent employees receive time off with pay for a personal holiday‚ based on the number of hours worked in the pay period in which the personal holiday is taken as noted in the table above. If an employee actually worked on other holidays in the same pay period‚ such hours worked are considered as hours on pay status. Any personal holiday credit not used within the year will be forfeited.
