The
Employee Relations
area is responsible for providing assistance and support
to University employees in the areas of:
Corrective Discipline
Employee Grievances
HR Procedures and Policies
Reorganization/Reduction in Force
Employee Relations assists with developing,
maintaining and improving employee relationships via communication,
performance management, processing grievances and/or disputes as well as
interpreting and conveying University policies. Essentially, Employee
Relations is concerned with preventing and resolving problems involving
employees which stem out of or affect work situations.
Some of the more common
inquiries include:
Can the department place a new employee on
probation, and if so, for how long?
Can a regular (benefits-eligible) employee
attend classes as a student during work hours?
Can an employee work through their lunch period in
order to work something like an 8:00 to 4:00 shift?
Is an employee required to give their supervisor or
department advance notice of resignation, and if so, how much advance
notice?
I would like to discuss
some work-related issues. What is the best way to do this?
