Classified school employees: part-time assignments.

Existing law requires the governing board of a school district to employ persons for positions not requiring certification qualifications. Existing law requires the governing board of a school district to classify those employees and positions and requires that they be known as the classified service. Existing law entitles a part-time classified employee to all leaves and benefits granted to a full-time classified employee, except that the governing board of the school district may prorate those leaves and benefits in the same proportion as the regular time worked by the part-time classified employee is to the regular time worked by a full-time classified employee. Existing law requires a classified employee who works a minimum of 30 minutes per day in excess of the employee's part-time assignment for a period of 20 consecutive working days or more to have their basic assignment changed to reflect the longer hours in order to acquire fringe benefits on a properly prorated basis. This bill would instead require a classified employee who works a minimum of 30 minutes per day in excess of the employee's part-time assignment for a period of 20 working days or more in a school year to have their basic assignment changed to reflect the longer hours. The bill would also make nonsubstantive changes to this provision.
