Yellow Cards

The yellow Student Hire Certification card is required by all department managers prior to starting employment. In addition to the Workday notification received by both managers and student employees, students must present the yellow Student Hire Certification card to their managers as confirmation that they have completed all hiring requirements and have been cleared at Student Employment.

Managers and supervisors: Do not allow new student hires or rehires to begin work until they present you with the yellow card.

Clearance Forms

Students are required to complete a clearance form if they are transferring jobs from one department to another on campus, transferring jobs from BYUH to PCC and vice versa, or BYUH and PCC co-employment. Clearance forms can be obtained at the Student Employment window located in the Lorenzo Snow Administration Building or the employment section of Human Resources Forms.
