Nonstudent Contact Time Clause Samples
The Nonstudent Contact Time clause defines and regulates the periods during which an instructor or staff member is engaged in work-related activities that do not involve direct interaction with students. This may include tasks such as lesson planning, grading, attending meetings, or professional development sessions. By clearly distinguishing these hours from student-facing duties, the clause ensures that expectations for workload and compensation are transparent, helping to prevent misunderstandings about job responsibilities and time allocation.
Nonstudent Contact Time. Every attempt shall be made to schedule the student attendance day to afford staff time to prepare after the students departure prior to the end of the scheduled workday as stated in Section 6.11. All employees shall be given the opportunity for periodic breaks to be taken throughout the day at such times as shall not be disruptive of instructional programs, subject to the approval of the employee's designated supervisor. (Such breaks shall not as a regular practice exceed a daily cumulative average of 20 minutes/day unless explicitly authorized by the supervisor).
