Board, Commission and Council Members

State Boards, Commissions, and Councils are defined by Idaho Code.
 
The section of Idaho Code that defines the board, commission or council usually defines the compensation of each of the members by referencing Idaho Statues Section 59-509; Salaries of Officers, Honorariums or Compensation for Members of Boards, Commissions and Councils.
 
If the members are defined by law to serve without honorarium or compensation, those members are not considered employees and should not be set up on the Employee Information System (EIS).
 
If the members are defined by law to receive a sum or honorarium, they are considered employees and must be paid through the EIS.  If the payment is an honorarium not considered salary as defined in section 59-1302, then the board member is paid through the EIS, but is not eligible for PERSI benefits.  For honorariums paid to persons other than board or commission members, please refer to the STARS manual.
