minimum of twelve (12) holidays. The Human Resources Department will announce,
prior to the beginning of a new calendar year, the exact date of the holidays to be
observed by University employees during the next year.
Annual evaluations are conducted on all department staff.
OFFICE HOURS
The official hours for University employees are from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM with one hour
off for lunch, special summer hours maybe observed, as approved by the Chancellor. All
employees are expected to maintain these hours unless otherwise approved by the
Director of Athletics.
It is realized that many staff members have teaching duties in HAHS Department and that
they, as well as non-teaching coaches, travel a great deal during certain periods of the
year, thus interrupting a regular office schedule. However, when personnel are not
teaching or traveling, office hours should be set and maintained for the convenience of
students, faculty, administrative staff, general public, media and other departmental
members. In all cases, the Director of Athletics, through the Sport Supervisor and
Compliance Office, should be kept informed of employees’ whereabouts.
All SPA employees are permitted two break periods of fifteen minutes each during the
regular eight hour work period.
SICK LEAVE
All full-time permanent SPA and EPA employees earn sick leave at the rate of 8 hours
per month, or 96 hours per year. Sick leave is cumulative indefinitely.
