*Seasonal employees are defined as employees who are hired into a position for which the “customary” annual employment is six months or less. Specifically, “customary” means that, by nature of the position, an employee typically works for a period of six months or less for consecutive calendar years, and that period should begin each calendar year in approximately the same part of the year, such as summer or winter. The job that is being performed must be a job that, due to the nature of the work (and NOT business need), cannot be performed at any other point during the year. For these situations, we can seek the “seasonal” exemption because seasonal employees are not benefit eligible under ACA.
If you have a “seasonal” situation, please submit a request for a seasonal exemption to your HR Associate Director. The request must include duties of the position, approximate dates of seasonal employment and reason that it is seasonal work.
