This E-Packet provides access to certain new employee HRM documents and policy.

You must provide the information below to your student employees (job group Z) and non-benefit eligible employees (job groups B, D, G, X). Benefit eligible employees (job groups A, C, F, H, W) receive the information at HRM’s new employee orientation; so, you do not need to print this information for a benefit eligible employee. However, for expedited computer access, you should have the new benefit eligible employee complete the Non-Disclosure of Confidential or Sensitive Information prior to new employee orientation and route the form to the Security Office, JO43.

In August and January, TA/RA's (job groups S & T) receive policy information at the graduate student orientation. If your student misses that orientation, you should have them complete the documents in Table 1 and give them a copy of Table 2.

Print the Table 1 documents; complete the documents, and route them as specified in the ACTION column.

Table 2 policies must be made available to your new non-benefit eligible employees (Job Groups B, D, G, T, X, Z). You can satisfy this requirement either by printing the six individual documents and giving a copy of each document to each new non-benefit eligible employee or by printing and giving this page to the new employee. The employee should log on to the policy sites and read the information. If your benefit eligible employee will not attend orientation, i.e. a Lecturer who teaches only in the evening, please print the information for them also.
