BALCZUN <br />. COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR <br />SUBJECT : SUMMER HELP/STUDENT•INTERNS <br />DATE MAY 23, 1988 <br />--------------------------------------- <br />We have received requests from some departments for information <br />concerning the County's policy toward hiring students for the <br />summer. <br />According to information received, students have been hired in <br />the past absent any formal policy or procedure. The prevailing <br />practice was that if there were funds available in the budget, <br />then a student could be hired. This does not lend itself to <br />sound budget and personnel management. <br />One method of filling the needs is through the Job Training <br />Partnership Act's summer youth program. We are already working <br />with the program to place youth in various departments. However, <br />because of funding and qualification requirements, they may not <br />be able to meet all of the needs. <br />In cases where JTPA and the County are unable to make a match, it <br />is requested that Personnel be authorized to create a temporary <br />student intern position to allow an operating department to hire <br />a student who does not meet JTPA's qualification criteria for <br />program participation. This process would require verification <br />from the Budget Director that funds are available in the budget <br />of the requestor. <br />Since this will be an annual occurrence, it is suggested that <br />departments and divisions who anticipate the need for student <br />interns include funding in their Fiscal -1988-89 budget request. <br />It is recommended that this matter be placed before the Board of <br />County Commissioners for a policy decision. <br />?
