I do not know about all employees, but when I worked the NCAA tournaments at UD, I had to specifically note on my timecard when I was working for UD and when I was during work for the NCAA Tournament. I was told that the NCAA picks up the tab for workers who are working strictly for the event. This was 7-8 years ago, so things may have changed since then.
