-We want to especially highlight the limit of hours worked: Effective July 1, 2015, the Student Employee Work Hours Administrative Policy limits the amount of hours students may work each semester across the CU system (Anschutz, Boulder, Denver, and Colorado Springs) to: +Termination of Employment
- +
-**Fall (16 weeks, August – December) – 25 hours/max (or 50 hours per biweekly pay period)** +
- +
-**Spring (16 weeks, January – May) – 25 hours/max (or 50 hours per biweekly pay period)** +
- +
-**Summer (10 weeks, June – August) – 40 hours/max**. In accordance with the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) regulations, international students may not work more than 20 hours per week—in total , regardless of the number of positions—while classes are in session during the Fall and Spring semesters. Student employees who exceed the work hour limits (across all jobs, across all campuses) may become eligible for employee health benefits under the Affordable Care Act. In the event a student employee becomes eligible for benefits under the Affordable Care Act, employer benefits contributions will be proportionately charged to the department(s) where the student was employed when the limits were exceeded, regardless of where the student is currently employed. Departments may also be subject to additional administrative charges as a violation of this policy subjects the University to additional exposure under the Affordable Care Act. **Supervisor Responsibility:** Supervisors are responsible for communicating policy to their student employees. Students are responsible for communicating with their supervisor if they are no longer students or are scheduled to work more than the maximum total work hours allowed for all jobs. For biweekly students who track hours worked in MyLeave, the Supervisor will review and approve timesheets in MyLeave. The latest step-by-step guide is found here: [[https://www.cu.edu/docs/sbs-my-leave-supervisors|https://www.cu.edu/docs/sbs-my-leave-supervisors]]. If you will be taking leave or time away from work, please set up a proxy for your timesheet approvals to ensure that your student employees are paid in a timely manner. S <font 11pt/inherit;;inherit;;inherit>teps to set up the proxy are found in the step-by-step guide, around page 5.</font> +

-==== Termination of Employment ====+
  
 When employees terminate employment, an official written notification which specifies the employee’s last day of employment to the supervisor and SEHD HR is required. SEHD HR will send an exit acknowledgement letter and an exit checklist to the employee. The employee will work with their supervisor, SEHD HR/Finance, SEHD IT and Ja'Net Hurt as needed for final business such as turning in keys, procurement/travel cards, ID badge, parking card, computer and tech equipment, and an office cleanout walkthrough. SEHD server/email access will generally be terminated at the end of the last date of employment. Retirees and CU alumni will have ongoing access to their University e-mail, along with limited portal access. When employees terminate employment, an official written notification which specifies the employee’s last day of employment to the supervisor and SEHD HR is required.
