Special Payroll Manual

Statutory Language

The regulations governing the Special Payroll are based on two statutory sources:

CGS10a-20 and CGS10a-108(a) governing the appointment of professional staff at the University.

Under these statutes, the University uses the Special Payroll for certain types of short term, temporary, seasonal, and, part-time professional staffing needs.


Temporary services typically involve less than six months of continuous employment.


Individuals hired on the Special Payroll do not receive benefits, although they may purchase medical coverage at group rates by contacting Human Resources, Employment Benefits at 486-0400.
