Internal Employment

Florida SouthWestern State College employees may accept other College-related positions in addition to their normal duties (i.e., part-time teaching, test proctoring) given the employee meets the minimum qualifications for the position and provided:

  • The additional work or teaching assignment is not during normal work hours, unless approved by the supervisor and appropriate Vice President/Executive.
  • The other employment does not detract from or conflict with normal duties in the individual's regular position.
  • The employee’s immediate supervisor approves such activity prior to performance of the work or start of the class.

Generally, non-exempt (hourly) employees, whether full or part-time, are not authorized to accept any other employment with the College that is classified as exempt; likewise, exempt (salaried) employees, whether full or part-time, are not authorized to accept other employment with the College that is classified as non-exempt. This restriction precludes non-exempt employees from teaching credit or non-credit classes at Florida SouthWestern State College. Any exception to this procedure must be approved by the appropriate Vice President and the Chief Human Resource Officer, and applicable laws regarding compensation and overtime will apply. The Payroll Office and the Office of Human Resources must be notified in advance if an exception is being requested to this procedure. In the case of non-exempt employee who does part-time teaching, a contract/personnel action form for Adjunct and/or Continuing Education instruction shall be properly completed before the commencement of the activity.

Employees of the College are entitled to seek and hold public office, provided there is no conflict of interest, and the holding of the office does not interfere with College duties. See COP 05-0904 Conflict of Interest.
