Step 2: Creating a Profile

First time Login

Each Work Study Supervisor must establish a Work Study Profile the first time they login to Work Study Center. Once that profile has been created, it will be available for reuse each time a job posting is required.

Responsibilities of the Work Study Supervisor:

In order to supervise Work Study Students, an individual has to have an active employment contract with the University and in a position to ensure proper supervision over the student. (Excluded groups include Professor Emertius/Emerita, Graduate Students, Postdoctoral Fellows/Associates, Adjunct Faculty.)  Responsibilities include:

• Manage and assign work to the Work Study Student.
• Ensure that the hours worked by the Work Study Student are reported accurately and in a timely manner to the department Work Study Administrator.
• Ensure that approved hours for the employment relationship are not exceeded.
• Ensure that information regarding departmental operations, including working hours, relevant policies and procedures and working relationships, are reviewed with the Work Study Student. Policies include Section 3 of the University Administrative Policy and Procedures.
• Ensure that all mandatory training is taken by the Work Study Student to meet all Health and Safety regulations based on the work location, role and duties assigned. See Required Training for more information.

Once the Supervisor's profile has been established, the duties of actually creating the job posting can be delegated, if desired, to another Western employee. See Step 3 for more information...
