Defining the AI job sharing standard
The eligibility check below will determine if your organization can complete our application to become certified as a Half.me Parent Equity Employer.
Here’s what it takes to be eligible:
Let’s get started
A team of at least two
We’re looking for organizations with a minimum of two employees. To qualify for benefits, part-time professionals should work 20 to 35 hours per week.
Benefits for all
We want all your employees working at least 20 hours per week (non-seasonal employees) to be eligible for your awesome benefits including health and retirement. Paid sick leave, either as a stand alone policy or within a Paid Time Off policy, is required for these employees.
Clear and accessible policies
Employees should have easy access to your written policies. You policy should clearly state that any professional employee seeking fractional balance may voluntarily request to participate in the AI job share program. Interested employees should be encourage to help demonstrate how AI can be used to maintain or increase their productivity as they reduce their work hours.
Work hours
Wage savings directly correlates with the reduction in work hours. In most cases, this will be 50% (e.g. going from 50 to 25 hours/week or 40 to 20 hours). Hours and wages must be reduced by at least 20 percent (20%) and not exceed 60 percent (60%). For salaried employees, this calculation should be based on the expected amount of weekly hours or the actual hours worked per week on average over the previous 6 months.
The workplace must provide data related to participants in the program, cost savings, and other metrics to receive certification.
