D. Authority for Employment of Temporary or Part-time Employees

   Employment of persons on a part‑time or temporary basis can be undertaken upon the recommendation of the appropriate supervisor and the approval of the Administrative Office. The recommendation shall contain the reasons for employment, the expected duration of employment, and the wage or salary to be paid. If offices have temporary help or other part‑time employees who are paid on an hourly basis, time cards shall be submitted in compliance with the schedule that has been set by the Administrative Office.

   When clerical help is secured through project agencies, no guarantee can be made concerning employment at the termination of their project entitlement.
