Hours and Schedules

The standard workweek schedules for full-time employees vary from department to department and are based on the need of any particular department to provide support services to the campus. Within and around these schedules and dependent upon the needs of the department, employees may be required to work nights and weekends as requested.

The standard workweek for full time administrative staff (exempt employees) is 40 hours, with the exception of Library staff. These employees receive salaries rather than hourly pay and are expected to work outside of the standard schedule as needed.

Meal breaks are generally unpaid and not included in the total work hours. For example, a full-time 40-hour-per-week employee works 8 am to 5 pm, with an hour unpaid lunch break.
