Scheduling Hours
Student employees are not permitted to work when they are scheduled to be in class. Generally, student employees who are US citizens or permanent residents may work up to 40 hours per week, and no overtime (over 40 hours) is permitted. However, since their primary purpose is to be a student, please be mindful of the number of hours they are scheduled each week so that work does not conflict with their studies.
In accordance with student visa rules, international student employees are permitted to work up to a total of 20 hours per week inclusive of all on-campus jobs during the academic year. International students may work up to 40 hours per week during academic breaks.
If a student employee is scheduled to work 6 or more hours in one shift, they are required to take a 30-minute unpaid meal break, and they must clock out for meal breaks. For more information, please refer to NY State Department of Labor website.
