Departments and student employees each have rights and responsibilities with regard to employment at Central Michigan University.  Rights and Responsibilities should be discussed when a student employee is hired and a statement of acceptance signed. 

The hiring department should:

• Outline student job duties.

• Inform student employee of pay rate (if a new position, after confirmation from Student Employment Services).

• Discuss specific policies/procedures that are unique to the department.

• Provide proper supervision for the student employee. Supervision should mean the employee has someone in authority to contact in the event of a problem in the workplace.

• Inform student of time and location of Right to Know* training (if necessary).

*Contact Environmental Safety Services (989.774.7398) to find out whether your students should attend this training.
