Policies

The following policies are established by the Student Employment Center and its affiliates.

1. The Student Employment Center (SEC) acts only as an advertising service and makes no particular recommendation regarding employers.  We make no guarantees or representations about positions posted by our office. The SEC is not responsible for safety, wages, working conditions, or other various aspects of employment. Due to the volume of job announcements received by this office, we are unable to research the integrity of each person or business that lists a job with us. We, therefore, urge you to undertake this responsibility.
2. Off-campus job vacancies are posted for the duration of each semester.  Employers are encouraged to notify the SEC if their position is filled so that it can be promptly removed from the vacancy list. At the end of each semester, correspondence will be sent to the employer in order to gather employment information pertaining to the number of IUP students employed, how many weeks employed, how many hours worked per week, and the hourly wage. Because the SEC is provided federal funds to operate the program, documentation is required by the Federal Government supporting that IUP students working off campus earn more money than is provided to facilitate the program.  Included with the employer mailing are instructions for reposting a vacancy for the impending semester.
3. On-campus job vacancies are posted for a period of one month.  Employers are encouraged to notify the SEC if their position is filled so that it can be promptly removed from the vacancy list.  Job postings will expire at the end of one month.  At this time, an SEC staff member will contact the departmental office to determine if the job has been filled or if the job vacancy should be extended for an additional month.
4. Policies regarding on-campus student employment can be obtained on the Student Payroll website. Policies include, but are not limited to:
   1. Eligibility for Employment
   2. Application Requirements/Employment Available
   3. Payroll Information
   4. Pay Schedules
   5. Student Back Hour Information
   6. Student Wage Rates
   7. Web Time Entry Information
