This is a reminder to supervisors that it is extemely important that you notify the Office of Human Resources (OHR) when regular and contingent staff separate from the university.
The timely separation of an employee from your department is critical for many reasons:
* Preventing overpayment against your department budget
* Keeping the university in compliance with federal timelines for required notification of continuation of benefits (COBRA)
* Maintaining accurate Human Resources data used for university, State and Federal reporting
Departments must complete an “Employment Separation Form” for all regular and contingent employees who are separating employment. The form must be completed and returned to OHR at least two weeks before the employee’s last day of work. Non-exempt employees should give at least two weeks written notice. Exempt employees should give at least 30 calendar days written notice.
If you have questions concerning this procedure, please contact Randy Peaker at x4-2162.
