Position Classification

The position for which you are being considered is a part-time position, which, for purposes of the federal health reform law, satisfies federal standards. Under those federal standards, work is part-time if someone works 29 hours or less a week on average. This average is not calculated on a week-by-week basis. Instead, a measurement period, also known as a look back period, is used to determine the average hours an employee works per week. Work hours may fluctuate from time-to-time depending on business needs and how hours are scheduled. Simply because hours may increase from time-to-time does not mean the position ceases to be a part-time position; it does not mean the position is full-time for benefits or other purposes. Variation in hours is part of the job position and may be such that you work well over 30 hours per week for an extended time. All changes to full-time positions will be documented with a formal notice; in the absence of that designation by us, a change has not occurred.

Federal law states that an employer is to measure its employees' hours worked to determine possible future health plan eligibility; therefore, if you are hired, we will track any hours worked over a 12-month period starting with the first day of the first month following the date of hire. If, at the end of the 12 months you are then determined to be eligible, you will be offered plan coverage at that time for the following 12 months. (Coverage is never available retroactively.)
