1. (a) This subsection shall apply to employees paid pursuant to section 599.612(a).

   1. (1) The salary range for each class represents the rate of pay for full-time monthly employment unless the pay plan specifically states otherwise. Monthly employment shall consist of a pay period prescribed by the Department of Finance and containing either 21 or 22 work days. Where there is part-time or irregular employment in a position for which a monthly salary range is established, the employee shall normally be paid the proportionate part of the monthly rate or on an hourly basis for the time actually employed:

      1. (A) Where the part-time employment is regularly scheduled and is a fixed proportion of the established work week, the employee shall be paid that proportionate part of the monthly rate (e.g. one-half time, one-quarter time).
      2. (B) Where employment is intermittent and irregular, the monthly rate shall be converted to an hourly rate in accordance with these regulations and an employee shall be paid at such rate.
      3. (C) Where the employee works on a part-time, irregular, and indeterminate basis, and it is not practicable to ascertain the number of working hours to be devoted to the service of the state, the local compensation for such service shall be fixed by the Department after considering the recommendation of the appointing power. Such recommendation shall include an estimate of the average amount of time to be devoted by the employee to the performance of duties and an appraisal of the value of such services.

2. (b) This subsection shall apply to employees paid pursuant to section 599.612(b).

   1. (1) The salary range for each class represents the rate of pay for full-time biweekly employment unless the pay plan specifically states otherwise. Biweekly employment shall consist of a pay period prescribed by the Department and containing 10 work days. Where there is part-time or irregular employment in a position for which a biweekly salary range is established, the employee shall normally be paid the proportionate part of the biweekly rate or on an hourly basis for the time actually employed:

      1. (A) Where the part-time employment is regularly scheduled and is a fixed proportion of the established work week, the employee shall be paid that proportionate part of the biweekly rate (e.g. one-half time, one-quarter time).
      2. (B) Where employment is intermittent and irregular, the biweekly rate shall be converted to an hourly rate in accordance with these regulations and an employee shall be paid at such rate.
      3. (C) Where the employee works on a part-time, irregular, and indeterminate basis, and it is not practicable to ascertain the number of working hours to be devoted to the service of the state, the local compensation for such service shall be fixed by the Department after considering the recommendation of the appointing power. Such recommendation shall include an estimate of the average amount of time to be devoted by the employee to the performance of duties and an appraisal of the value of such services.
