Part-Time Hourly Employment
Part-Time Hourly Employment
The Part Time Temporary Hourly Electronic Request Form should be used to hire a NON-STUDENT temporary, part-time employee.
Before an hourly employee can start, the following is required:
- The PT Temporary Hourly Request Form must be completed and approved by the Division Head and Budget or Office of Sponsored Programs as applicable.
- Onboarding for new hires is done electronically through the Office of Human Resources using the HR Applicant Tracking System (PageUp).
- Employee must successfully complete a background check prior to hire.
- All new hires are required to complete an electronic Form I-9 in Equifax I-9 HQ. Section 1 must be completed online and Section 2 will need to be completed in-person with original identification verification document(s). The link for completing Section 1 will be provided to new hires as part of the onboarding process.
Hourly employees are considered "at-will" employees, and are only paid for the hours worked. Please note that hourly employees may receive leave time in accordance with New Jersey’s Earned Sick Leave Law. Provisions contained in the CWA, IFPTE and AFT collective bargaining agreements do not cover hourly employees.
*Employees CANNOT begin work until all necessary forms, documentation, and background clearance have been received by Human Resources.
If you have any further questions or need clarification on the process, please contact the Recruitment and Staffing team at employment@rowan.edu.
Identifying Candidates for Hire
If departments have not already identified a candidate they wish to hire for their position, the Office of Human Resources can help identify candidates by posting or advertising the vacancy for the department.
The request form must be in Human Resources’ approval queue prior to posting the position.
Hour Limitations
The purpose of an hourly employee is to fill a temporary need in a department. Hourly employees are limited to no more than 25 hours a week and/or 944 hours per fiscal year. If you feel that your need is ongoing, it may need to be addressed through hiring a full-time permanent employee. This request would be evaluated during the budgeting process.
