The following page contains answers to commonly-asked questions about the Work Study Subsidy Management System.
Employers will request and be approved for subsidy hours by term for all eligible Work Study positions within their supervision, no longer job by job. Subsidy hours are 鈥榰sed鈥� as reimbursement are processed for eligible students in eligible jobs if the supervisor still has subsidy hours remaining. The employer dashboard will display hours approved, hours used and hours remaining. Depending on the system role assigned to a user, they may be able to see the payroll details comprising the subsidy hours used.
For the coming 2020-2021 academic year, requested subsidy hours will be estimated for existing Employers based on their actual usage of the previous academic year across all the Work Study jobs they supervise. A preliminary calculation of requested hours by term will be communicated to each Employer, for their review, in June so they can understand the shift from the old per-job model to the new across-all-jobs model. Employers will have an opportunity to request changes (up or down) based on what their needs are. Subsidy hours will be converted in August following confirmation from the Employer to ease the transition. Going forward, new and existing Employers will need to request hours directly in the new system.
At the time of cut-over in July, remaining unused summer hours will be assigned to each Employer for use in the new system for the remainder of August 2020. Each Employer will receive a communication with their 鈥榮ummer carry over hours鈥� in late June or early July.
Employers can review the Employers Dashboard in the Work Study Subsidy Management system to view their Approved hours.
Employers will not be able to see the payroll details of all 涩里番 students. The Work Study Subsidy Management System only captures students who are participating in the Work Study Program.

A Supervisor will only see the Work Study students that are hired under their supervisory group (driven by the information in Workday) for whom they receive subsidy reimbursements.
