13.1 Eligibility for Service Award
The service award is available to all faculty, administrators, and clerical/support staff who are regular full-time and regular part-time employees of TTU and who complete the required length of service to the University.
13.2 Service Credit
The Human Resource Services Office determines total service credit for eligible employees. The program is retroactive to include credit for regular service of eligible employees prior to July 1, 1984. It is not necessary that service be continuous to receive credit. Prior TTU service is verified by the Human Resource Services Office. Regular part-time service receives credit on an equal basis with full-time service and is not to be prorated. Any period of paid leave status is included in the calculation of service credit. Periods in which the employee is in an unpaid leave of absence status are not included nor are periods of temporary employment.
