On-campus Employers

Please refer to the Student Employment Handbook for further information on hiring and managing student employees.

Advantages of Hiring a Student Employee

• They gain valuable work experience that benefits them after they leave YC.
• Student employees are exempt from the FICA (Social Security/Medicare) tax—a savings of approximately 55 cents per the starting $7.35 per hour pay rate.
• The college also is exempt from the same FICA tax rate for student employees saving Yavapai College money, too.

Logging Student Hours

Student employees may work no more than 25 hours per week during our regular fall and spring semesters. It is the responsibility of the supervisor as well as the student to keep track of the number of hours worked. Once a student has exhausted their federal work study award the supervisor needs to submit a Notice of Separation to the Human Resources office.

Please keep a log to anticipate when the federal work study award will be exhausted, and be aware that the student may be also working for another department (sharing the FWS benefits).
