The Board is authorized to use flexible hours positions. A flexible hours position is one that does not require an ordinary work schedule and includes but is not limited to: (i) a part-time job of 20 hours or more per week, (ii) a job which is shared by 2 employees, or (iii) a job with a compressed work week consisting of an ordinary number of working hours performed on fewer than the number of days ordinarily required to perform that job. The Board may define flexible hours positions to include other types of jobs than are defined above.
     The Board shall establish goals for flexible hours positions to be available at each campus under its governance. The Board shall give technical assistance to each such campuses in achieving its goals, and shall report to the Governor and General Assembly prior to May 1, 1997, on the progress of each institution in achieving its goals.
     When a goal of 20% of the positions on a campus being available on a flexible hours basis has been reached, the Board shall evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the program and determine whether to expand the number of positions available for flexible hours.
