Service Recognition Guidelines
Who is eligible?
- Staff and Administrators (MPP)
What service is counted?
- Consecutive Part-time and Full-Time appointments
- Temporary, probationary and permanent appointments (with the exceptions outlined below)
What service is not counted?
- Hourly Staff, Auxiliary Staff, Student Assistant, Teaching Associate, Graduate Assistant, and Instructional Student Assistant service & Faculty are not eligible.
- Casual Workers and Special Consultants are not eligible.
- Service at another CSU or state agency
- Breaks in service
How are service years determined and recognized?
- The Staff Years of Service Recognition program recognizes staff members and administrators who have reached service milestones in 5 year benchmarks each calendar year (January 1 – December 31) and honors the time served the following year.
Why does it look like my State Service or CalPERS Service does not match my service recognition?
- State service and/or CalPERS service is calculated differently than service recognition time. State service and/or CalPERS service may include employment at outside agencies. Please let us know if there are discrepancies so we can look into it.
What do I need to do to ensure my time is counted correctly or if I feel I should be receiving an award?
