Rule 871-24.53 - Noncovered school-related employment

(1) Pursuant to rule 871-23.20 (96), wages earned by a student who performs services in the employ of a school at which the student is enrolled and is regularly attending classes (either on a full-time or part-time basis) cannot be used as wage credits for claim or benefit purposes. However, wages earned by an individual who is a full-time employee for a school whose academic pursuit is incidental to the full-time employment may be used for claim and benefit purposes.

(2) Pursuant to rule 871-23.20 (96), wages earned by the spouse of such a student in employment with the educational institution attended by the student cannot be used for benefit purposes if the employee-spouse is told prior to commencing the employment that the work is part of a program to provide financial assistance to the student and is not covered by unemployment insurance.

(3) Pursuant to rule 871-23.21 (96), wages earned by a student who is enrolled at a nonprofit or public educational institution under a program taken for credit at such institution that combines academic instruction with work experience are normally excluded from the definition of employment. Provided, however, that work performed by such individual in excess of the hours called for in the contract between the school and the employer or performed in a period of time during which the institution is on a regularly scheduled vacation and for which such student receives no academic credit shall be considered as insured employment.
