Employment Information:
I understand that to be a student employee, I must be a student.  This means being enrolled in at least 6 credit hours during Fall and Winter semesters.  If I am working during Spring/Summer, I must either be enrolled a combined total of 3 credits over the two terms, or a minimum of 6 credits the following Fall semester. *
I understand that I CANNOT work more than 20 hours per week at BYU during Fall and Winter Semesters. *
Required
I understand that I CAN work more than 20 hours during the Spring/Summer terms (unless I am an International student, in which case, strict rules apply for hours, please refer to link). *
I understand that I can have no more than 3 concurrent jobs at BYU. *
I understand that even though BYU authorizes me to work up to 20 hours/week, my agreement with my supervisor might be less than 20 hours. I will clarify hours/week with my supervisor and will not work more hours than my supervisor has specifically authorized. *
You may work off campus if you desire. However, you may not work for the LDS Church or any LDS Church affiliate while being employed part-time at BYU.  This includes a growing list of more than 30 affiliates including, but not limited to, the MTC, Deseret Book, LDS Family Services, Seagull Book, LDS Bible Video Productions, etc. *
For TA's: BYU requires that you complete the FERPA training annually.  [This is a Federal Law protecting student data.]  For new employees, you will be sent a link to the FERPA training by email AFTER you have been authorized to work.  We want to pay you for the time you spend being trained!  If you've already done the FERPA training, the link below will give you the date completed. *
FEPRA DOs and DON'Ts
I understand that I cannot work for or be supervised by anyone who is related to me. *
I understand that I CANNOT begin working before I receive an authorization email from the Psychology Department.  If I accidentally already began working, I will contact Jalene so we can make it right. *
I understand that I am expected to clock IN and clock OUT for the actual time I work (at the time I work) and not let the time clock run at a later time to accrue my worked time.   *
I will resolve time-exceptions and other issues with my time sheet by contacting the psychology department either in person, through email, or by phone in a timely manner. I understand that not correcting such issues will result in my paycheck being processed incorrectly. *
I will be honest in logging my hours on Y-Time and understand that my supervisor has to approve my hours before I get paid for each two-week period. *
I understand that BEFORE being authorized to work, I must complete my I-9 at the student employment office in the Wilkinson Student Center. This is valid for three years, so if I've already done this recently, I won't need to do it again.   *
I understand that direct deposit is required for my paycheck.  I will also indicate my tax withholdings on a W-4 form.  After I am employed, I will complete both through my.byu.edu under the Work tab.   *
Employee Information
Cell phone carrier: (in case we need to text you) *
Employee Classification *
Have you already started working?   *
Hopefully your answer is "No" because the Psych department is fined if you have started working without being authorized. If you have started working, for whatever reason, we need to know so that you can be paid for that time.  Please indicate the date you started in the next question and send us an email with an explanation so that we can work it out. 
Start date? *
When would you like to begin working?  This will be the date that your time sheet is open for you to begin clocking in/out.  FYI:  The hiring process sometimes can take a few days, so please don't begin working until you are actually authorized.  Also, if the date you plan to start working is more than three weeks away, please come back and submit this form closer to the actual time you plan to start working.

Who will be paying you? *
Supervisor *
Typically, this is the instructor or faculty member for whom you will be working.  The supervisor will also be the one to approve your timesheet hours.
If you marked "other" on supervisor, type supervisor's Last name, First name. Leave blank otherwise.
Hourly Wage (or Contractual Agreement) *
What hourly wage will you be earning?  If in doubt, ask your instructor/supervisor. The department standard hourly wage for TA's is $12.00 prior to FERPA training.  If being hired with a contract, in the "other" answer, please indicate the contract amount. 
More on wages...  If you are a TA you will want to request a department raise each semester.  You will do that by going to psychology.byu.edu, employment tab, and clicking the link to edit your job.  If you are not a TA, you can negotiate raises with your supervisor. *
Hours per Week *
BYU allows 20 hours per week for all jobs combined (during fall and winter).  How many hours is your supervisor wanting you to work weekly?
Job Description *
Example: TA for Chelsea Romney's Psych 111 class during Winter 2023 working about 5-7 hours per week.
Psych Central Access for TAs
If you are a TA and are planning on holding in-person office hours, KMBL 1145 is available for your use. The room is left open from 7am to 5pm, if you require access after those hours, you will need to have card access in order to get in. If you do not list yes here, you can request later using the Card Access form on the psychology website.
Clear selection
Have you ever worked at an on-campus BYU job? *
If you haven't worked on campus you will definitely need to go to student employment with documents to substantiate an I-9 form.  If it has been three years or more since you did your original I-9, you will need to do this again.  If you go to the student employment office before the Psych department has started your eFORM, they won't find you in the system to do your I-9 form.
If you have worked on campus, are you currently working at an on-campus BYU job?  (Students hired under contract cannot work another hourly job)
Clear selection
If you are currently working on campus, will you continue to work your current job(s) and this new job?
(BYU allows only three concurrent jobs)  FYI:  Each of your other current jobs will need to approve this new job.  This process can happen more quickly if you call your other employer and ask him/her to approve your new job.
Clear selection
If you are done working your other job(s), and would like to be "transferred out" of one of those jobs and into your new job, please list the exact job you are leaving below.  IF YOU ARE CURRENTLY WORKING AT THE MTC - we cannot do a job transfer, and the process of being hired is a slow one, unless you proactively talk to the MTC person in charge of hiring.
Please give any additional details involving concurrent employment below if needed.
Please acknowledge by typing the information between the quotes: "I understand I am not to begin working until I am authorized by student employment AND the job appears on my Y-Time."  This means you will not do the FERPA training, will not attend class, will not attend a lab meeting, will not meet with your supervisor to work in anyway until you are authorized to do so.  If you did not understand this rule and have already been working without authorization, please contact the psychology receptionist ASAP.  (Contact information below.) *
Employee Acknowledgement: *
I certify that all the above information is correct, that I meet the necessary minimum requirements for the position for which I am applying.
Please complete and submit this form multiple times for multiple jobs/supervisors. *
If you are a TA for multiple classes under the same professor, you do not need to complete multiple forms; you will use the same Y-Time slot for all of them.
