“I just got back from a 3-hour lunch meeting where I reviewed with a
vice president all the changes in our benefits and services policies
that will appear in the next iteration of our
Employee Handbook. I
could speak with knowledge, confidence and authority largely because
of your
Personnel Policy Manual with all of its supporting guidance
and documentation. You are my #1 resource when it comes to
policies.
Keep up the good work!”

When does a temporary or part-time employee become a
full-time employee?
|
|
Q. A part-time employee recently has
been working up to 40 hours a week but is not receiving full-time
benefits. When does a temporary or part-time
employee become a full-time employee?
A.
There is no specific number of hours that an
employee must work before he becomes a
full-time employee under
federal law. That definition is created by the employer. Most
employers define full-time employees as those who regularly work 35
to 40 hours a week. These employees typically are entitled to
benefits such as paid sick leave and vacation and insurance
coverage. Part-time employees are any employees who work less than a
full-time schedule and may receive some benefits. Temporary
employees may work either a full or part-time schedule but are
usually hired for a specific project or for a finite period of time
and do not receive any benefits.

If a
part-time employee works a full-time
schedule on a temporary basis, such as to complete a project or
during a busy production period, most employers do not reclassify
the employee as a full-time employee eligible for full-time
benefits. However, if it appears that the part-time employee will be
working a full-time period for an extended period of time or
indefinitely, the employer should consider reclassifying the
employee so that he is entitled to the benefits of a full-time
position. The same is true for temporary employees — if they are
working indefinitely or in a position normally performed by
full-time employees, they may be misclassified and should be
reclassified as full-time employees.
