LHR Guidelines

AnchorB,B,B. Raise Guidelines

• The position may require training and/or supervision of fellow students, or the responsibility to work unsupervised for much of the time.
•  The candidate brings relevant experience or skills/knowledge to the position, and requires less training.
•  The position may require a late-night schedule, or traveling to a far end of campus, and the library would like to provide incentive.
•  The desire to maintain the same (or better) pay-level if a student comes from (or concurrently holds) a different job.

For more information on the appropriate tasks associated with each pay-grade level, see: https://studentemployment.cornell.edu/jobs/wages-and-classifications/university-student-job-classifications

With the most recent increase in minimums SMT would prefer our merit increases to be 2%. Students returning after a full year of service (winter & spring semesters) will then receive a 2% merit increase. If you feel your student deserves more, this needs to be approved by SMT first.  

• When a new student is hired, provide LHR staff with a copy of the Student Employment Application, appointment form, and the position description.
• Before any merit increases can be given we need to complete the Student Performance Evaluation.
• When a student has terminated employment permanently, we will provide LHR staff with a Student Termination Report. (an important step as LHR staff frequently receive phone calls about student employees).

All of the above forms can be found at the Library Human Resources website.
