Standard work schedules that differ from these guidelines for other than flextime must be reviewed and approved by HR (refer to policy 5.1.4 Flexible Work Arrangements).

• Supervisors plan, direct, and assign work schedules to meet the needs of the work unit.
• Supervisors are expected to advise new employees of their daily and weekly work schedules when they are hired, and to give reasonable advance notice to all impacted employees if schedules are to be changed.
• Supervisors authorize and assign overtime when required with as much notice as possible, recognizing that occasions may arise when little or no advance notice is possible.

Supervisors must consult with HR whenever they need to change the duty time of a regular full-time or part time employee for a period longer than four weeks.

• An unpaid hour for lunch is normally provided to office staff members during the academic year; during summer hours, the lunch period is normally 45 minutes.
• An unpaid half-hour lunch period is provided for technical support, maintenance, and service staff members.

• Full-time biweekly-paid employees are provided 20 minutes for rest periods per day, scheduled with the approval of the supervisor. This is paid time and may be taken as one break or split into two 10-minute breaks.
• Paid rest period time may not be accumulated, added to the lunch hour, or used for late starts or for leaving the workplace early.
• Rest period time not taken may not be used toward the calculation of overtime.
