24. University of Nevada Las Vegas Payroll Department UNLV Controller’s Office Always Check Spring Enrollment for Summer Hires! New Hire: If the individual is not currently a student, or did not have credits in the spring semester, they can begin to work as Casual Labor over the summer, up to 160 hours. If the employee is enrolled in classes at UNLV Fall 2016 with 6 or more credits, they can continue to work for the Fall semester. However, the employee will need a new PAF with a new job record as STU as of 08/22/2016, to co-inside with the beginning of the Fall semester. Terminate the Casual Labor record by crossing off the CAS account line(s) on the Time Summary Report. Write Termed and the employee’s last day of work. If the student was enrolled in 6 or more credits during the spring, the student can begin to work as a student worker over the summer.

25. University of Nevada Las Vegas Payroll Department UNLV Controller’s Office Summer Hires, Continued Continuing Student Worker: If the student was enrolled in 6 or more credits during the spring semester, the student can continue as a student worker over the summer term until the beginning of the Fall 2016 semester. Spring Graduating Student Worker: Students who graduate in May, are allowed to work over the summer as a Student Worker as long as they have met the minimum credit requirement during Spring Semester. If they did not take the required credits, they can be hired as Casual Labor to work over the summer up to 160 hours. Rehire or Transferring into Your Department: If the student was enrolled in 6 or more credits during the spring semester, the student can work as a student worker over the summer term until the beginning of the Fall 2016 semester. If they did not take the required credits, they can be hired as Casual Labor to work over the summer up to 160 hours.

26. University of Nevada Las Vegas Payroll Department UNLV Controller’s Office Summer Hires, Continued Summer Only Hourly Worker - Student or 160 Hour Appointment : These are for job specific projects and will self-terminate. Departments that hire “Summer Only” workers need to be sure that hours are reported to Payroll in a timely manner as these job records self-terminate as do the account lines. - Must have an END DATE based on the project ending (not 12/31/2050) - Must have Comments: “Summer Only Worker - Hourly Employee. Termination may be given at any time.” For any 160 Hour/Casual Labor appointments, hours must be tracked to ensure the employee does not exceed the maximum 160 hours.

27. University of Nevada Las Vegas Payroll Department UNLV Controller’s Office Things to Remember Verify Student credits before hiring and after last drop date – Notify Payroll Office if student drops below minimum credits(6 credits) Enter your new employee in WEB Contracts as soon as they are hired Send ALL hourly PAF and employment documents to Financial Aid & Scholarships before the deadline Check WEB Contracts prior to payroll process to make sure the PAF has been rolled (no longer suspended) If an employee is not paid, add unpaid hours to the next payroll on a blank Time Summary Report sheet – If you have any questions contact the payroll office Remove termed employees off Time Summary Report by lining out the employee’s information and writing a term date at the end of the entry

28. University of Nevada Las Vegas Payroll Department UNLV Controller’s Office Termination of Student/Hourly Employees - Examples of Why It’s So Important 1) Federally Mandated Notices are sent to ALL "active" employees Example: Affordable Care Act - Over 1,000 students and CTs without paychecks in over a year, still had a job end date of 12/31/2050 and were sent notices. 2) ACE (provisioning active directory) - Allows access to data over hundreds of applications: servers, lotus notes accounts, and employee wellness clinic 3) Federal/State/NSHE/public information requests/reports - will show exaggerated student counts, and casual temporary staffing levels higher than the numbers of people actually working 4) Untimely or improper termination of a hourly employee could affect the individual’s other work verification, government assistance, and/or unemployment benefits. The only way to TURN OFF all these services/reporting records is to end the pay lines and job records.

29. University of Nevada Las Vegas Payroll Department UNLV Controller’s Office Payroll’s Process Timesheet Summary Report Pay close attention to payroll cutoff dates. All Timesheet Summary Reports are to be submitted to the Payroll Office by 1:00 p.m. on the payroll cutoff date.
