Student Employee Responsibilities

Keep the following job responsibilities in mind as general best practices for all student employees at UNC.

• Establish a work schedule that does not interfere with your class schedule.
• Notify your supervisor in advance of any changes to your work schedule or other commitments that will affect work availability.
• Give advance notice when unable to work a scheduled shift.
• Take the job seriously and perform at the highest level of your ability.
• Treat your supervisor and fellow employees with respect.
• Dress appropriately for the job location (some worksites have dress codes).
• Report to work on time. Notify your supervisor in advance of any possible delays.
• Do not conduct personal business on the job.
• Refrain from using cellular phones while on the job.
• Accurately report the hours you work. Falsifying your timesheet is a federal offense. If you make an error in entering your hours worked, let your supervisor know so the error can be corrected.
