Learning Resources Department Employee Guide

Work Schedules

Work schedules are made each semester. The Dean of Learning Resources approves the work schedules for all full time employees.

The Dean arranges the schedules of full-time employees each semester. Department employees who hold additional positions within the College or with an outside agency must obtain permission using the form below and submit a Schedule Including In-Person Classes Taught as Adjunct to the Dean each semester.

Location supervisors schedule part-time employees.

In the Learning Resources Department, scheduled break periods are not used. There is enough down-time each day for employees to attend to tasks such as going to the restroom, getting a drink, or attending to personal business as needed. It is expected that employees will not abuse this arrangement and will put the needs of students and daily operations first.

In the Learning Resources Department, lunches are scheduled at the service location level and are reflected on the location's work schedule. If an employee needs to change their lunch period, a supervisor's approval is required. Lunch breaks cannot be accumulated, nor used to cover  late  arrival or early departure from duty. Part-time employees do not get meal breaks. See Operating Procedure 2.16.8.2 Lunch and Break Periods for the full College policy.

All employees are expected to report on time for their shift and remain in their assigned work area throughout the entire shift. Failure to report to work, habitual tardiness, or leaving early will result in termination of employment.

Employees should not come in early nor remain after their shift to complete any assignments unless they are authorized to do so by their supervisor and will be compensated for the time. Likewise, employees should not linger in the Library or tutoring rooms to socialize with other students or employees who are working.
