911吃瓜

• 911吃瓜 is a unionized campus and many roles are affiliated - affiliation is based on the nature of the work, which is defined in current agreements.
• It is best practice to have a signed employment contract before work begins,鈥痶hough this is not鈥痗urrently a requirement for ONC positions.鈥� 
• 911吃瓜 continues to work towards being a living wage employer. Living wage should be paid to all employees, unless they are:
  • Casual employment of fewer than 120 hours of work per year
  • Multiple small contracts
  • Interns and students who are completing practicum placements or co-op terms
  • Apprentices and trainees, as long as their probationary period or training period has a defined end point (at which time they will be paid the living wage)
  • Staff in their probation period (up to 6 months)
• Compensation is subject to source deductions (CPP, EI, WCB, EHT).
• Onboarding, training and supervision is the responsibility of the Department.
• Refer to 911吃瓜鈥檚 hiring guidelines to determine eligibility for employment at 911吃瓜.

Existing agreements determine whether roles are affiliated. ONC appointments must be considered within this framework.

• If the role exists and is affiliated 鈥� work with your HR Strategic Business Partner (HRSBP) for hiring steps.
• If the role does not exist it will need to be assessed for affiliation. HRSBP will guide on the next steps. 

鉁� If the role is found to be non-affiliated, proceed with appointing the role as an ONC position.

• If the role does not exist 鈥� your HRSBP will assist with the creation of an appropriate job description or list of duties.

Step 1: Determine whether the appointment is Other Non-Continuing 

An ONC appointment is: 

• Temporary: typically seasonal, event based, short-term, task-focused, and intended as a one-time engagement. 
• Not affiliated with CUPE, APSA, APEX, POLY, 911吃瓜FA or TSSU.
• The nature of the work is not research, administrative or office/clerical (e.g., routine office, technical services), or does not provide academic or teaching support that is directly tied to the delivery of credit courses.
• Compensated by 911吃瓜 Payroll.
• Number and scheduling of hours may be variable.
• Duration may be variable, but not more than 3 months except where the duration spans the term of a semester and the individual is expected to work irregular hours and work fewer than 20 hours over the length of the appointment. 

An ONC appointment is not: 

• One-time payments made to individuals performing work for 911吃瓜 but not expecting remuneration or expecting a token payment for service, e.g., volunteers, guest speakers.鈥�
• One-time payments made for student recognition or awards.鈥�鈥�

Exception 鈥� the ONC category is used to process appointments that are:

• Work performed at an 911吃瓜 campus but compensated by another legal entity as part of a business relationship with 911吃瓜 for Payroll services.

If the individual is an 911吃瓜 employee, proceed to鈥�Step 2.
