Common use of Substitute Assignments Clause in Contracts

Substitute Assignments. Substitute assignments will be compensated according to the Adjunct Salary Schedule (lecture, lab, or non-instructional rate in Section 17.7.3) provided such activities are assigned and approved in advance by the appropriate supervising administrator. Adjunct faculty members, who are not regularly employed as full-time faculty, shall not “cover” assignments without compensation, but must be hired as substitutes if they are to provide substitute services for faculty members who are absent. Adjunct faculty must notify the lead or appropriate supervising administrator and are not allowed to simply “trade” with another faculty member. The College will not compensate a substitute unless the appropriate supervising administrator authorizes substitution pay for the substitute. Submission of a leave of absence form by the absent faculty member (paid or unpaid leave) is required for processing appropriate leave regardless of whether a substitute is hired to cover the class(es).
