The benefits you receive as a Jay Peak employee vary based on the employee "group" number that you belong to. To help better understand your employment status, benefits eligibility, and assigned resort privileges we have outlined the four employee groups below.
Full-Time Year Round Salary (FTYRS) - Employees who are not in a temporary or introductory status, who are EXEMPT (paid on a salary basis and who are exempt from overtime and recordkeeping requirements of state and federal law), and who are regularly scheduled to work the resort's full-time schedule without a break in service.
Full-Time Year-Round Hourly (FTYRH) - Employees who are not in a temporary or introductory status, who are NON-EXEMPT, and who are regularly scheduled to work the resort's full-time schedule of not less than 30 hours per week for an annual total of 1,560 hours.
Part-Time Year Round (PTYR) - Employees who are not in a temporary or introductory status, and who are regularly scheduled to work less than the resort's full-time schedule. Employees in this category would work on a year-round basis and on average would have less than 30 hours per week. Annual hours would be less than 1,560 hours.
Seasonal & On-Call (SOC) - Employees are those who are in a position of seasonal nature for the summer or winter season. Each seasonal position is less than 6 months in duration. This also includes employees that are not regularly scheduled to work, but are called to work when the need arises.
The resort is proud to offer competitive health insurance options to Group 1, Group 2 and qualifying Group 3 employees. We encourage all employees to obtain coverage under some type of medical insurance plan.
