Job Classification Guide

This guide applies to all student employees. Hourly-paid student employees should be paid at the same base hourly rate for comparable work, whether they have Work-Study or are paid with departmental funds.

Supervisors grade jobs based on the complexity and responsibilities of the position. Once the Grade Level is determined, each job must be assigned a Job Code, which will establish the position’s category and the job title.
