The College provides child care assistance to all regular full-time and regular part-time Employees.
Below is a brief description of child care assistance that may be provided when feasible. For more detailed information, please contact the Human Resources Department.
* CAFETERIA PLAN/FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT: Employees choose benefits (including child care) from a list of options and contribute a part of pre-tax pay to a child care account. This option allows Employees to minimize the federal tax they must pay on child care dollars.
* FLEXTIME SCHEDULING: Employees may request the opportunity to vary their work schedules (within employer-defined limits) to better accommodate child care responsibilities.
* FLEXIBLE LEAVE: The College recognizes that the fulfillment of child care responsibilities can provide a compelling reason for time-off requests. Where feasible, Employees' needs will be accommodated.
* SICK LEAVE BENEFITS: Employees may use accrued sick leave benefits in the event of the illness of a child.
