Limitations on Work Hours
Temporary and Extra Help (also called Seasonal) employees are limited to working 1500 hours in a fiscal year (July 1 - June 30) per Arkansas Code Ann. § 6-63-314.
Department timekeepers can track temporary employee hours using the RPT - Hourly Employees Fiscal YTD Hours Worked report in Workday by typing the report name in the Workday search tool on a regular
basis to ensure employees aren't nearing the maximum hours worked each fiscal year.
Hiring Resources
Managers or Employment Coordinators should use the Extra Help/Temporary Hiring Checklist to hire extra help/temporary employees. Managers or Employment Coordinators should
also review the Hiring Temporary Employees QRG to see available job titles, grades, and any restrictions that may apply. The
Temporary Employee Rate Chart provides hourly rates/ranges available for this fiscal year. The ADHE Classification and Compensation web page can be used to search job descriptions and minimum requirements found within
the ADHE Classified pay plan.
Extra Help/Temporary Hire Request Form
This form will require a brief job description, contact information, anticipated pay
rate, and the potential employee's resume/skill set. Once completed, the request
form will route to Human Resources to assist in determining the best position to be
used based on the job description and employee's experience level.
Contact your HR Partner if you have additional questions, or need assistance in hiring
a temporary employee at humanresources@uada.edu
An applicant must have appropriate authorization by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services through the Form I-9 and E-Verify process to be eligible for employment. The I-9 form & E-Verify process is completed electronically in Workday by the employee and the appropriate Onboarding Partner.
If a hire is approved in Workday on the employee's first day or after, a paper Form I-9 form must be completed & the E-Verify process must be completed by going directly to the E-Verify web site (link below). In these cases, the Onboarding Partner will receive a To Do task in Workday to upload the paper I-9 form and E-Verify Case Details page.
For assistance in completing the I-9 & E-Verify process within Workday, use the I-9 with E-Verify Integration Quick Reference Guide.
To sign up for E-Verify as a user or for questions with an existing E-Verify account, contact Patricia Johnson in Human Resources at pjohnson@uada.edu or call 501-671-2010.
