Yes. PRN positions are temporary appointments. The employee is agreeing to work in a temporary, only 鈥渁s needed鈥� capacity, and would not have guaranteed hours.  Part-time regular means that the employee works less than 40 hours per week, has a set schedule and works certain days with certain hours.  Part-time regular positions may qualify for employee benefits.

Initially, no.  Eligibility for an offer of health insurance for a temporary employee is based on total average hours worked per month (greater than 87 hours on average) during the lookback measurement period. Under this lookback measurement period, the employer measures an employee鈥檚 hours over a period of time, usually 12 months. After completing 12 months of employment within the lookback period, if the employee averages at least 20 hours per week (or 87 hours per month) over that measurement period, then he or she must be offered coverage for a 鈥渟tability period鈥� following the measurement period. The 鈥渟tability period鈥� begins January 1 and ends on December 31.
