79 Cell Phone Requirements

Policy Statement:

Due to the nature of certain positions, it is required that the persons employed in these positions be available to both MSC staff and persons in the community we serve.  Therefore, these employees are responsible to acquire and pay for a personal cell phone, the number of which will be made available to a wide range of constituencies.

Procedure:

The College will provide a monthly payment (“additive”) in addition to salary to offset the expense of use of the cell phone for College business.  This payment is determined by administration based on historical usage and will include an amount to partially offset the cost of the phone, accessories, set-up fee, and telephone insurance.  The payment will be separate from an individual’s employee’s salary and is paid from a Personnel Action form. Employees who are required to carry a cell phone will be required to sign a written agreement to participate in the additive payment program.
