HR - HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (HRMS) TIMELINES:

HR understands there may be circumstances where it is not possible for contracts to be submitted by these deadlines. In those cases, HR will make every effort to work with Hiring Manager to process contracts in a timely manner.

Please refer to the payroll calendar for deadlines on when offers/contracts are expected to be accepted by in order to be paid on time.

The Work Study Program provides domestic students with the opportunity to develop transferable skills through paid work on campus. The Work Study Program is needs-based and funded by Humber College. International students are not eligible for work study funded positions.

To participate in the program, students must:

• Demonstrate financial need
• Be a Domestic student currently enrolled in studies (Canadian citizen, Protected Person, or Permanent Resident)
• Be a full-time student under OSAP's definitions (For most students, this means a minimum 60% course load; or 40% course load if registered with Accessible Learning Services Maintaining Work Study Eligibility)
• Maintain good academic standing in a ministry-approved post-secondary program
• Have a Social Insurance Number (SIN)

As a Work Study employee, Work Study students are required to continue to meet eligibility requirements throughout their student employment contract period. It is the student's responsibility to communicate change in eligibility with their supervisor.

Work Study eligibility checks will be conducted throughout the semester.

During Work Study (WS) employment, should a student become no longer WS eligible (ie. no longer in good academic standing and/or drops to Part-Time status during the fall/winter term), the WS contract has to be rolled into a part-time support contract or their contracts will have to be terminated. For students in this situation, please reach out to the Work Study team workstudy@humber.ca

For more details on the hiring process, please refer to page 4 of the Work Study Program Hiring Manager Guide [PDF]. Scroll down to Resources for more Hiring Resources.

On campus employers are encouraged to post positions on Career Connect, Humber's Job Portal to ensure equitable hiring opportunities for students. To learn how to post a job on Career Connect watch the how-to videos.

Students who do not meet the Work Study Program eligibility requirements (stated above) typically fall into the following student groups:

• International Students (who are not Protected Persons)
• Students enrolled in the following program credentials:
  • Certificate of Participation
  • Certificate of Completion
  • Certificate of Achievement (includes Apprenticeship Programs)
  • Professional Certificate
  • Academic Upgrading

As a best practice, it is encouraged that hiring managers allot 20% of their student employee positions to support with hiring Non Work Study Eligible students. Please connect with your Budget manager to determine any approved funds available under the Salaries Part-time Support Account (6350). Non Work Study eligible students would be paid through this account.

REMINDER - If a student has completed their program of study by the end of the Winter 2024 semester and is not taking summer courses or coming back in the Fall for full-time studies, they are not eligible for summer student on campus job opportunities.

All contracts will be created in the Human Resource Management System (HRMS) and processed by HR.
