	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 955, Burton.  Community colleges:  temporary employees.

   Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges under
the administration of the Board of Governors of the California
Community Colleges.  Existing law provides for the employment of
faculty as temporary, contract, or regular employees.  Existing law
requires that a person employed to teach adult or community college
classes for not more than 60% of the hours per week of a full-time
employee having comparable duties, excluding substitute service, be
classified as a temporary employee and not become a contract
employee.
   This bill would prohibit service in professional ancillary
activities by persons employed under this provision, including, but
not necessarily limited to, governance, staff development, grant
writing, and advising student organizations, from being used for
purposes of calculating eligibility for contract or regular status,
unless otherwise provided for in a collective bargaining agreement
applicable to a person employed under this provision.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


  SECTION 1.  Section 87482.5 of the Education Code is amended to
read:
   87482.5.  (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any
person who is employed to teach adult or community college classes
for not more than 60 percent of the hours per week considered a
full-time assignment for regular employees having comparable duties
shall be classified as a temporary employee, and shall not become a
contract employee under Section 87604.
   (b) Service as a substitute on a day-to-day basis by persons
employed under this section shall not be used for purposes of
calculating eligibility for contract or regular status.
   (c) (1) Service in professional ancillary activities by persons
employed under this section, including, but not necessarily limited
to, governance, staff development, grant writing, and advising
student organizations, shall not be used for purposes of calculating
eligibility for contract or regular status unless otherwise provided
for in a collective bargaining agreement applicable to a person
employed under this section.
   (2) This subdivision may not be construed to affect the
requirements of subdivision (d) of Section 84362.
