Purpose:
The purpose of this policy is to provide information and guidance regarding employee service dates.Policy:
Service date is defined as the initial date of employment with the University unless there has been a break in service or a change in employment status. If there has been a break in service, or a change in employment status category, the service date is the date of hire for the most recent period of continuous service.
Service dates, in conjunction with employee status categories, determine eligibility for service awards and eligibility for some benefits, including, but possibly not limited to, accrual of annual leave.
For employees who change employment status categories, the following policies apply:
- An employee who is regular part-time will retain his/her service date when changing to full-time regular.
- An employee who is regular full-time and changes to regular part-time will retain his/her service date.
- An employee who changes from a temporary appointment to a regular appointment, whether full-time or part-time, will receive a new service date.
- An employee changing from Contingent/ On-Call appointment to a regular appointment will receive a new service date.
Note: Service dates of current employees are unaffected by this policy unless they experience a future break in service or a change in employment status. Service dates for the University are not to be confused with the retirement service date calculated and maintained by Teachers' Retirement System.
