Re: Part-time Employees
Civil Service has reminded us that certain rules apply to part-time employees and
the number of hours they are allowed to work per week.
Attached is a copy of Civil Service's "part-time employee" rule for your
information and review. Please be sure that your department adheres to this rule.
Any deviation could result in Civil Service disapproving the employment of the
part-time employee.
I suggest that you contact the Town Attorney should you require any clarification
regarding this requirement.
