Your supervisor will establish work expectations and guidelines that are specific to the department. As a student employee, you are also expected to comply with the following general responsibilities:

• Your most important responsibility is to work hard and perform duties to the best of your abilities.
• Ask questions if you are unsure about any aspect of your job.
• Report to work on time and work your scheduled hours.
• Always contact your supervisor as early as possible in the event of illness or other reasons for absence or tardiness.
• Dress according to the recommendations of your supervisor. Individual departments may specify dress guidelines when necessary to meet health regulations or to conduct the activities of the area.
• Handling confidential information about the university, faculty, staff, or students is one of your most serious responsibilities. You should not release this kind of information to anyone without your supervisor's permission.
• You should periodically request evaluations of your work and ask your supervisor for copies of any written reviews.
• Provide sufficient notice to your supervisor (preferably two weeks) if you decide to leave your job for any reason. All students at Ball State University, including student employees, are expected to comply with the standards of conduct set forth in the Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities.
