Student Employment Supervisors
The purpose of student employment is to provide Loyola Marymount University students with valuable work experience and training. Students at LMU will gain experience through hands-on learning and integrated learning outcomes to foster meaningful work. We recommend checking out our SES Resources & Guides for Student Supervisors!
As a Supervisor, you will be expected to:
- Become familiar with Workday in order to increase communication between student, supervisor, and SES.
- Keep track of your student’s funding; make sure the student does not exceed their award by maintaining records of student’s declining balances, as well as your department’s balance.
- Review and approve student hours reported on Workday. This is essential to controlling fraud and monitoring departmental allocations.
- Model professional behavior for student employees.
- Support the training and professional development of your student employees, encouraging the attendance of SES Student Workshops.
Becoming a Supervisor
If you do not have access to hire student employees in Workday, request to be assigned to your departments “student supervisory organization” to hire student employees. Please submit requests through HR ServiceNow "Get HR Help".
NOTE: Supervisors no longer have to compete the Budget Registration Form. Have the appropriate funding details to charge your departments student employee position prior to hiring in Workday. Cost Center and work tags can be created by generalaccounting@lmu.edu.
