Before we get started, we should tell you about the differences between a student employee and a workstudy student. When a student employee is hired, the department is responsible for 100% of the student's salary. When a work study student is hired, the department is only responsible for 30% of the student salary. A work study student must have a "work study award" awarded by the Financial Aid Office.

The University of New Mexico is an Equal Opportunity Employer. It is the policy of the University of New Mexico that no person shall be excluded from the participation in, denied the benefits of, or otherwise be subjected to discrimination in any form under any program or activity of the University, its branches, or agencies, on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age, national origin, physical or mental handicap, ancestry or medical condition.

You as the employer must provide reasonable accommodation. Reasonable accommodation is any change in the work environment, or the way a job is normally performed that enables a qualified individual with a disability to perform the essential functions of that job. Some examples of reasonable accommodations include making facilities accessible to people with disabilities, acquiring or modifying equipment or devices or modifying job procedures. It is the student's responsibility to inform his or her supervisor of the need for an accommodation. The Director of UNM's Office of Equal Opportunity is UNM's Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Coordinator. The ADA Coordinator can help employees and supervisors with requests for accommodations.

You should familiarize yourself with the Student Employee Handbook.
