Student Employment

1. PURPOSE

The Student Employment Policy is designed to ensure students employed by Brigham Young University–Hawaii (“BYU–Hawaii” or “university”) and the Polynesian Cultural Center (“PCC”) are informed of all the privileges and responsibilities provided to them as employees. Included in this policy are the processes of eligibility, hiring, and compensation. This policy should not be interpreted as an employment contract and is not meant to impose any legal obligation upon either the employee or the university. The university reserves the right to make amendments or to terminate changes to any policy and will make every effort to keep all student employees abreast of such changes.

2. POLICY

Students are only allowed to work a maximum of 19 hours per week except when school is not in session. BYU–Hawaii student employees assigned to work at the PCC are. A student working on campus may transfer to the PCC or vice versa, provided a job clearance is secured.

University policies and procedures should be followed at all times, along with any others set by the department. Non-compliance with these may result in discipline or discharge.

3. IMPLEMENTATION

3.1 Safety

The safety of both students and all other employees is the main priority of the university. Accidents, illnesses, unsafe practices, or emergencies should be handled immediately.
