The effective date of employer-provided benefits is the beginning of the month after the employee’s date of hire at MHCC, unless otherwise indicated. Available medical, dental and vision plans and rates are available at https://mhcc.edu/about/jobs/work-at-mhcc.

Important Retirement Information

Make sure you are enrolled in the medical, dental and/or vision plans you want when you retire. Retirement is not considered a Qualified Status Change (QSC) so you cannot add or change plans at the time of retirement.
In order to ensure that a spouse/domestic partner and/or eligible dependent can be covered when you retire you will need to enroll them on MHCC's policy at the open enrollment period prior to your retirement date even though they may be covered under another policy. The College pays the employer portion of the premiums during double coverage periods.
Although the College pays the employer portion of premiums during any double coverage period, double coverage is discouraged other than prior to retirement as it incurs additional expenses to the College. Coverage for domestic partners is a taxable benefit under IRS guidelines. Appropriate taxes will be deducted from your payroll.

Life Insurance Coverage = $50,000
Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) Coverage = $50,000

Use of MHCC Swimming Pool

Full-time employees and dependents have free access to the MHCC swimming pool during open recreation sessions. Swimming classes through the American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim program are not free under the tuition waiver plan or the swim pass. Employees are responsible to pay for the classes.

Professional Development Funds

As approved by the President, professional development funds are available for management employees. Contact the Director of Human Resources for information on accessing these funds.

Vacation

Scheduling and Use of Vacation Leave

Vacation leave is scheduled in advance with the approval of the employee's manager and should be planned cooperatively with the employee. Vacation leave will be scheduled in such a manner as to minimize disruption to the organization. Vacation can only be used as it is accrued. Managers must be reasonable in allowing the use of vacation leave and may not unreasonably deny vacation requests where the result would be the forfeiture of accrued vacation. For purposes of calculation, one normal workday is the equivalent of eight hours of vacation leave for a full-time employee. Holidays falling within a period of vacation leave will not be counted against vacation leave.

Separation from Employment

Upon separation from employment, an employee will be paid for any accumulated vacation leave. The employee is responsible for repayment of any overuse of accrued vacation leave. The ending date of employment cannot be extended by using vacation. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by Human Resources.

Vacation Accruals

Management and confidential employees with a 1.0 FTE assignment accrue 13.33 hours of vacation per month (20 days per year). Management and confidential employees with assignments of less than 1.0 FTE accrue vacation in proportion to their FTE. Management and confidential employees accrue vacation on a monthly basis, beginning the first calendar month of employment. Vacation accrues on the last day of the month and is available for use the first day of the next month. Vacation leave will not accrue to any employee on leave without pay or suspension with duration of more than 30 days.

Maximum Vacation Leave Accrual Balance

An employee’s total balance of accrued vacation may not exceed 320 hours. The hours of vacation leave earned each month will be adjusted to ensure that the maximum accrued vacation limit is not exceeded.

Sick Leave

Employees shall have ten (10) days of sick leave placed in their sick leave bank upon beginning employment and shall accrue one (1) day of sick leave per month worked. Yearly accruals will be posted on the first day of each fiscal year. Employees working less than 1.0 FTE in a fiscal year will have sick leave accruals prorated. There will be no limit on the number of days accumulated during an employee’s employment. If termination occurs before the end of the fiscal year, sick leave accruals shall also be pro-rated.

Personal Leave Days

Confidential employees receive up to 2 days (16 hrs) of personal leave per fiscal year to be used for personal reasons and are not accumulated or paid out upon separation of employment. For non-exempt positions, personal leave can be used in hourly increments at the employee’s discretion with prior approval from their immediate supervisor.
Detailed information regarding all management benefits are available in the Management and Confidential Employee Handbook.
