Post-Hire Requirements
Student timesheets and hours
Timesheets must be completed and approved by the student employee via MyRider, every other Tuesday at 5 p.m. and then approved by the supervisor by Wednesday at 5 p.m. Please utilize the student payroll calendar for submission dates.
Employment policies and resources such as sick time, hour limits, grievance procedures, etc. can be found within the Student Employment Handbook under "Employment Policies, Standards, Payroll, and Levels".
A student is not permitted to work more than 20 hours per week during regular enrollment periods for on campus and off campus community service jobs (affiliated with Rider University). A student can work up to 40 hours a week when classes are not in session and during summer recess depending on department budgets and needs, and supervisor approval. Work hours are monitored by individual departments’ staff.
A student employee is not allowed to work during scheduled class time. If a class is canceled, the student must document that class is canceled before they can work during the designated time. A student working more than six consecutive hours in one day must take a 30-minute unpaid break.
If a student is employed during a period of non-attendance (i.e. winter or summer break), the student must show reasonable intent to continue enrollment (such as the upcoming Fall or Spring semester). Pre-registration for the upcoming semester is sufficient proof of intent to attend the next semester.
