Fixed Term Contract Employee Project
Objectives
eliminate discrepancies in the provision of benefits in the full time fixed term contract employee category;
make provision for fixed term contracts and / or permanent appointments pending on the operational requirements of the university. This option will provide the required flexibility of resources highlighted as a future requirement by various departments over the last years;
redistribute the current over and allocation of cost in the most cost-effective and fair way according to clear policy guidelines and practices

Fixed Term Contract Employee Project
Principles
The following guidelines should be followed in managing full time fixed-term contracts at UWC:
No unfair discrimination directly or indirectly on the basis of race, age, gender or any one of the grounds mentioned in sec 6 of the Employment Equity Act should be allowed.
Because of the financial challenge of providing benefits to employees on fixed-term contracts, different categories of fixed-term contract employees are provided for. In principle, the shorter the period of employment, the bigger the difference should be between the benefits enjoyed by permanent compared to employees of fixed-term contracts. Conversely, the longer the period of service, the smaller the difference should be.

Fixed Term Contract Employee Project
Principles
The period of service for purposes of this policy should be determined with reference to the total number of years of , continuous, full time years of service in the same position with UWC, and not the periodicity of the staff members’ temporary contracts.
Appointments on fixed-term contracts should only be
used where the position concerned is indeed of a temporary nature or the duration of the appointment is dependent on uncertain factors, e.g. availability of funding.
A distinction should be made between persons funded
entirely by UWC ; and those wholly or in part by external sources.
Head of Department’s (HOD’s) should strike a balance between the UWC’s need to limit its employment risks and the legitimate expectations of temporary staff.

Fixed Term Contract Employee Project
Principles
The policy does not apply to student assistants, examiners or moderators or persons who render services for remuneration as part of their training.
This policy is not retrospective in its application and may be phased in.
The policy distinguishes between granting
temporary staff pro rata benefits and appointing them on a permanent basis.
The policy distinguishes between appointments at
executive level and other fixed-term contract appointments.

Fixed Term Contract Employee Project
Managing Fixed Term Contracts
all fixed-term contracts should be in writing;
they must contain an acknowledgment that the appointment is temporary and will expire automatically at the end of the term;
they should stipulate that renewal is not automatic and that no expectation of renewal or permanent appointment may be harboured;
If it appears that the employee may have reason to expect renewal, this should be addressed at the earliest opportunity. In cases of doubt, the contract should be terminated in the same manner as that of permanent staff members;
There should be no unauthorised promises of renewal. All fixed-term contract staff must be informed in writing of the identity or designation of the persons who are authorised to contract on the university’s behalf;
Inequalities (over and under allocations) will be managed according to the current guidelines of the Reward Strategy.

Fixed Term Contract Employee Project
Fixed Term Contract Conversion Principles
The following conversion principles are proposed:
Due to the size of the project, the conversion of the Full-time Fixed Term Contract Employees will be phased in rather than a revolutionary approach;
The starting date for the application of the new policy will be 1 November 2006 for new fixed term contract employees to the UWC;
All new contracts (new appointments and existing
renewals) from 1 November 2006 will be negotiated according to the abovementioned new categories;
Nothing will be taken away from any individual (i.e. no individual should be worse off after the conversion), however, the existing package could be structured differently to deal with current discrepancies such as over-allocation of the Basic Salary.

Impacts
What is Hot!!!!! What is Not!!!!!!!
Working closely with the HR consultant on all new fixed term contracts as well as fixed term contract renewals from 1 November 2006.
Working in isolation excluding the HR Consultant in future contract renewals. This will impact on budgets and achieving approval of contract renewals or new fixed term contract appointments (refer to attached process).
Check new staff requirements and / or fixed term contract renewals against contract categories involved (especially Category 2 and 3 where benefits apply) vs. operational budget available.
Not ensuring which category the Fixed Term Contract employee qualify for could impact on the budget and / or could end up in a litigation case against the Department and UWC.
Budget made available for potential retrenchment (1 week for every year worked [benefits included]) for each fixed Term Contract renewed (especially important for categories 2 and 3).
Donor Funded Projects especially should include budget for possible retrenchments should the project be terminated at any stage during the funding period. If not, this cost will impact the UWC and Departmental budgets.
Finalise renewal of Fixed Term Contract one month prior to end of contract. If unsure or decision can’t be reached, rather terminate the contract.
Fixed Term Contract employees working at UWC without a contract.
Never exceeding the 60% DOE (Department of Education) Staff Cost.
Loosing sight of the bigger picture of staff cost at UWC.
Keep record of and manage probation periods and poor performance incidents effectively. This is a dependency for making an offer to the person should the position become permanent and the person qualify for the permanent role (refer to requirements).
No record of progress during probation periods or when poor performance occurred will automatically prove that the current candidate in the current role cannot be disqualified should the role become permanent at any stage.

Fixed Term Contract Employee Project
Definitions and Meanings
“Continuous service” means that the service is not interrupted by a period of absence in excess of normal annual, sick or maternity leave. (It must be borne in mind that the term has a different meaning for the purpose of determining the length of an employee’s employment for any provision of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act) The term “the same post” refers to the same functions or duties, irrespective of the title of the post. In terms of the BCEA, interruptions of less than one year between periods of employment by the same employer are regarded as continuous. This means that if severance pay is payable to a temporary staff member who is made redundant, the entire period of employment at UWC must be taken into account even if there were a series of fixed-term contracts, unless the period between the end of the previous appointment and commencement of the new one exceeds one year. The same applies to the calculation of pro rata leave pay. Because the BCEA does not deal with benefits in general, e.g. retirement or medical, study assistance, etc. UWC may stipulate a different time frame for determining whether service is to be regarded as continuous or not.

Fixed Term Contract Employee Project
Fixed Term Contract Conversion Principles
The following phased principled approach will apply to all existing employees:
Nothing will be taken away from any individual (i.e. no individual should be worse off after the conversion), however, the existing package could be structured differently to deal with current discrepancies such as over-allocation of the Basic Salary;
Over allocations: Packages will be structured differently and/ or salary will be frozen for a required period to phase out discrepancy (salary management);
Under-allocation: New policy principles and categories will apply. Packages will be adjusted (phased in) and salaries managed upwards according to applicable midpoints on the salary scales;
The fixed term contract employee categories do not necessarily entail a “permanent position”. No permanent positions will be offered to any employee who has been working less than 5 years at the university in the same post. Permanence will only be considered once the employee has been working for five years or more at the university. Permanent positions will only be approved if clearly motivated according to operational requirements and set criteria. Senior Management’s view will be based on the requirements of the position. Donor funded employees will not qualify for permanence due to the uncertainty around the longer term nature of the financial sponsoring of these projects, except if Senior Management would require this position to become permanent and carry the cost from their own operational base.

Guidelines for Categories
Category 1: persons employed for a continuous period of less than two years on a fixed-term contract in the same or different positions
Persons falling into this category are not entitled to any benefits other than their agreed salary/wage.
They remain temporary.
Any termination prior to that date (e.g. for operational requirements) is subject to the provisions of the LRA.
No UWC benefits should be granted.
Annual, family responsibility, maternity and sick leave entitlements may be as per Basic Conditions of employment Act (BCEA), but should be consistent for all employees in this category.
There is no right to permanent employment or renewal of the appointment after expiry of the period.

Guidelines for Categories
Category 2: persons employed for a continuous period of between two and five years in the same or different positions and persons employed for longer than 5 years in different positions
Persons employed in this category remain temporary.
They may negotiate a restructuring of their remuneration package in terms of which funds may be allocated towards benefits instead of cash payments, including, to the extent allowed by the rules, the university’s medical aid funds subject to a limited option.
Annual, family responsibility, maternity and sick leave entitlements may be as per UWC’s policy, but should be consistent for all employees in this category.
Any termination prior to the agreed date (e.g. for operational requirements) is subject to the provisions of the LRA.

Guidelines for CategoriesCategory 3: persons employed for a continuous full-time
period of more than five years in the same position
Persons who have been employed in the same post for more than five years may be appointed to the university’s permanent staff.
Terms and conditions of service of permanent staff are applicable.
If a person has been appointed to the same post on renewable contracts, the consent of the relevant Dean or Section Head must be obtained to extend the contract beyond a five year period.
All persons falling into this category will progressively have the same benefits as permanent employees.
Termination of the contract of employment of persons falling into this category must be dealt with in the same manner as the termination of the contracts of permanent staff members.
If the post is funded through external sources, or mainly through external sources,
allocation of permanent benefits will be subject to such funding. However, where funds are not made available for this purpose, the person may negotiate a restructuring of their remuneration package in terms of which funds may be allocated towards benefits instead of cash payments, including, to the extent allowed by the rules, the university’s medical aid and retirement funds. While the university will pay monies deducted to the fund or medical said scheme concerned, the university will not contribute to such fund or scheme.

1. Consult with your HR Team. Do not automatically apply an increase to the current package.
2. Determine if over allocation is the result of Salary or Benefits.
2. Determine if under allocation is the result of Salary or Benefits.
3. Consider benefits (where applicable) to be allocated per category and include into current package. Total might be the same but package may be structured differently due to benefits included.
3. Benefits should receive first priority.
4. Salary should be within 20% range of midpoint and should be adjust over a period of time after benefits have been added. Should salary be lower than the minimum of the range, please raise the issue with your HR Team immediately.
