The Office of the Provost and the Department of Human Resources announce the new Adjunct Faculty Contract Payment Process effective for the Spring 2025 semester.
This new initiative will automate the contract process with our adjunct faculty for communicating their course assignments and course compensation electronically in Employee Self Service. Adjunct faculty will be able to view their contract terms and conditions and acknowledge their course assignments online with a simple click.
Seton Hall University will be using the Faculty Load and Compensation (FLAC) functionality in Banner to deploy these improvements.
Benefits of Automation of Adjunct Contracts
- Adjuncts will have transparency to course assignments and associated compensation.
- Visibility into assignments across all departments and schools/colleges
- Reduction in time to review and approve assignments at the school/college level
- Automated calculations of course compensation
- Electronically signed contracts for adjuncts improves turnaround time
- Documented rules for compensation
- Reduction in handoffs and returned forms
- Elimination of paperwork will save time and reduce redundancy
With this new process, faculty, staff and administrators will see improved turnaround time and increased efficiencies by automating the adjunct payments and reducing our reliance on paper forms. We are excited to see these improvements to start in Spring 2025.
