11. Guidelines For Classified Staff Earning Additional Compensation Compensation associated with classified employees teaching is considered additional pay (overtime).

An exception to teach is NOT necessary IF the classified employee will not be on an unpaid furlough leave during any calendar period in which they teach (e.g., a semester). This will necessitate such classified employees taking their unpaid furlough leave outside the required teaching schedule WHILE STILL ENSURING THAT THE MANDATORY QUARTERLY MINIMUMS FOR FURLOUGH ARE REACHED. (e.g., minimum of 12 hours per quarter in the fiscal year.)

12. Guidelines For New Classified Staff An employee who is initially appointed to state service after July 1, 2011, may only be required to take the number of hours or days of furlough leave that is required to be taken during the remainder of the fiscal year after his appointment.
