5.66 - Hybrid Work Policy

Policy Number - 5.66

Approved: 03/17/2026

Purpose

Kansas City Kansas Community College (KCKCC) recognizes that hybrid work arrangements
can be important benefits for recruiting and retaining quality employees, enhancing job
satisfaction, increasing productivity, and staying market competitive. KCKCC supports flexible
work arrangements that promote work-life balance while maintaining operational productivity
and efficiency for College staff.

Definitions

Good Standing – refers to employees with no current performance improvement plans or
disciplinary actions issued within the last 12 months.

Remote – refers to the practice of working from a location other than a traditional
workplace/office.

Hybrid – refers to employment which consists of a specified number of remote days and a
specified number of days required on-site.

Scope

This policy applies to full-time staff and non-teaching faculty who have completed at least 30
days of employment and are not among the excluded designated positions. All teaching faculty,
part-time staff, and student employees are excluded. Staff are excluded if they are not in good
standing and if their primary responsibilities do not meet the threshold of 75% of duties being
able to be performed remotely.*

Policy Statement

It is the policy of KCKCC to provide opportunities for hybrid work for eligible staff who are in
good standing. Up to two days of remote work per week after completion of requirements to
participate are available. Hybrid arrangements are not entitlements and may be modified or
revoked at any time based on a number of factors, including but not limited to performance,
operational needs, or changes in role responsibilities. Because the hybrid work program provides
for specific work arrangements, there are no “make-up” days if a remote day is missed due to
holidays, closure, or operational needs.
