1. Welcome Supervisors! 2016-2017

2. Work-Study…What is that?  The purpose of the Federal Work-Study (FWS) Program is to provide meaningful part-time employment to students who need the earnings to meet their educational expenses.  The program is intended to help student offset their cost of their program, it is not to replace or perform services which would otherwise be preformed by regular employees.  The program is designed to provide experience in developing skills, creativity and responsibility in preparation for the job market.

It is always better to be safe than sorry.

9. Hiring Your Student Now that you have completed all your interviews, it is time to select your student worker(s).  Move the applicant(s) in PeopleAdmin to “Recommend for Hire”  Background checks are completed by HR  If no discrepancies are found HR will email you  Offer the position to the student and discuss a date to begin working  Do not forget to create a “Hiring Proposal” in PeopleAdmin Now you are off and running!!!

10. Payroll Paperwork You are not off the hook yet! The student’s first day of work should be considered as an “Orientation Day”.  Office introduction and a review of job duties  Send the student to HR to complete: Employee Payroll Information W-4 I-9 (Make sure the student is aware to bring their ID along) Confidentiality Agreement

11. Training and Orientation Once the student returns, have them complete:  Work-Study Orientation This orientation is their student worker handbook. It is basic knowledge of how the program works, payroll and their rights as a COCC Work-Study Employee. It is important for them to complete!  Preventing Harassment in the Workplace and on Campus All COCC Employees are required to complete, even work-study students. They need to print out the certificate for you to keep in their student file. I do NOT need a copy.

17. Responsibilities  Establish a working schedule each term. Students cannot work during their regular scheduled classes.

Badges are available at the Information Booth. Federal regulations state that all work-study students must be supervised!

19. Responsibilities  Discuss with your student worker items such as: Confidentiality Dress codes General expectations Attendance and punctuality Timesheets and payroll procedures Mandatory reporting Appropriate behavior and language Remember that you are building good working habits. If you do not clearly state your expectations from the beginning, do not hold the student responsible. Be a good, mentoring supervisor!
