Policy on the Amount of Hours Students are Permitted to Work:

When working on campus students are limited to the number of hours they are allowed to work on campus.

  • While classes are in session students are permitted to work up to 70 hours in a four week pay period or 87.5 hours in a five week pay period.  This is an average of 17.5 hours a week.  Freshman should not use the average, and should only work up to 17.5 hours a week.  Upperclassman may use the average, but should still not exceed 25 hours per week.
  • During extended breaks Juniata's policy allows for students to work up to 40 hours per week.
  • Overtime is only permitted on rare occasions and prior approval must be obtained from the Director of Human Resources.
