Temporary or Casual Appointments

A. Appointment Process

For jobs not posted, the unit enters information directly into HRMS system. The hiring department carries the sole responsibility for maintaining appropriate documentation to support the appointment and classification of temporary and casual employees.

A requisition is to be created and submitted for approval using the employment system in situations where the department needs to recruit applicants for a position that lasts more than one year. Once approved, the job is posted. When a hire is made, the hiring department enters the appointment information into the HRMS system.

B. Exception for Graduate and Post-Baccalaureate Students to Exceed 75% Time

Exceptions to the 75% time limitation for restricted time periods may be requested from the Dean of the Graduate School or dean of the relevant professional school. Such permission must be requested in writing from the student’s department and graduate school advisor and approved in advance. In no instance will appointments totaling in excess of 100% time be approved.
