Learn the difference between a full-time employee and a variable employee and if an employee can switch from either full or part-time to variable.
Question:
What is the difference between a full-time employee and a variable employee?
Answer:
Full timers are employees hired with the “reasonable expectation” that they will work at least 30 hours per week. They must be offered insurance after their first 3 full months of work.
Examples of “reasonable expectation” may include some of the following circumstances:
A variable employee has an uncertain work schedule at the time of hire, so it can’t be determined whether he’s reasonably expected to work 30 hours per week. Hours worked by variable employers are measured for a specified time period to determine if they are full or part-time and whether insurance must be offered.
Question:
Can an employee switch from either full or part-time to variable?
Answer:
Yes, but restriction apply and changes should be done with caution.
