FLEXIBLE APPOINTMENTS. 202 Flexible appointments are appointments of Administrative Professional staff providing between 75 and 95 percent time equivalent salary over a calendar year, with some fringe benefits equivalent to full-time appointments. A flexible appointment is a voluntary commitment by an Employee to a specific schedule of work. Flexible appointments may be in one of the following forms: Type 1: Full-time, active employment for 9, 10 or 11 months per year with a prescheduled unpaid leave of absence with benefits ("flex-leave") during the remaining months. -203 As with any Administrative Professional position, job demands may require work outside and in addition to those of the regularly scheduled flexible schedule. -204 Where a Type 1 flexible appointment includes a leave with benefits, the Employee's position is held for his/her return at the end of the flex-leave, subject to the conditions specified in paragraph 230. -205 The objective of flex-year appointments is to achieve budget flexibility where departmental functions can be accomplished with 75 percent employment, through a combination of benefits and other incentives. -206 Departments identify positions for flexible appointments. Regular Employees and persons to be employed in those pre-identified positions may agree to be placed in flexible appointments. Employees desiring flexible appointments whose positions are necessarily full time may apply for transfers to flexible appointments, subject to relevant policies and negotiated agreements. When a department desires to change a position from full time to a flexible appointment and the incumbent does not volunteer for that status, reduction in force procedures may be initiated to achieve the reduction within the department. If a flexible appointment position is subsequently eliminated, reduction in force procedures will be initiated. Staff members with flexible appointments who later desire a change in appointment may apply for other positions as they become available.

FLEXIBLE APPOINTMENTS. 210 A flexible appointment, either as an initial appointment or as a change of appointment, may be granted only with the agreement of a prospective or current staff member. Without agreement, a current staff member may be subject to the Reduction in Force policy. -211 A flexible appointment must be arranged in advance with an Employee, and approved by the departmental administrator and the MSU Human Resources. -212 All flexible appointments will annually provide a minimum of 1,560 hours of scheduled work (subject to necessary reductions in force). -213 A flexible appointee's FTE salary is the amount that would be paid if an entire year was worked in full time (e.g., $1,000/month x 12 months = $12,000). The base salary is the actual expected pay during the year. For example, if the FTE salary is $12,000, base salary at 75 percent would be: Type 1: $1,000 x 9 months = $9,000; Type 2: $750 x 12 months = $9,000 -214 Flexible appointees are regular AP Employees. -215 Leaves with benefits may be established for periods of one month or more, up to a maximum of three months (in increments of one month). -216 Leaves with benefits are only those that are prearranged as part of an approved flexible appointment. -217 No Unemployment Compensation is paid during a leave with benefits.1 -218 If the flexible appointment converts to full-time status, the Employee will receive an appropriate salary adjustment. 1Inasmuch as appointees on flex-leave have neither been laid off nor terminated but are on a mutually agreed-upon leave of absence, they are ineligible for Unemployment Compensation. If Unemployment Compensation is sought by the Employee, the leave with benefits is voided and the Employee shall be placed on layoff status, without application of reduction in force provisions. -219 Employees volunteering for flex-leaves must sign the PAN form signifying their voluntary concurrence with their change in status. This action is subject to the review and approval of MSU Human Resources.
