As part of the Department of Human Resources, Employee Engagement Services provides resources for all employees concerning work-related issues. Our services include counseling for managers initiating corrective and/or disciplinary processes, acting as a "second set of eyes" regarding employee relations actions before actions are taken to ensure compliance with university policies and procedures. Additionally, we provide resources and information for employees that promote a better understanding of university and/or departmental goals and policies, along with information that can support employees addressing personal challenges that could affect them in the workplace.
Please contact Human Resources at extension 4594. Human Resources will assist you in determining the appropriate action step. Please visit our website to review our communications model.
First, you need to meet the performance expectations listed in the written warning. Not following the expectations could result in further disciplinary action. Second, you can submit a written response to be included in your personnel file as a response to the corrective action.
Confidentiality is a critical component of human resources and will always be maintained at the highest level, as long as it does not interfere with the university's legal obligation with regard to specific laws.
Human resources has the ability to attend meetings between supervisors and employees when appropriate, once hierarchical protocols have been followed.
As an at-will employer, the university reserves the right to end the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause and with or without notice. Likewise, the employee has this right as well.
By informing your supervisor in writing that you are resigning. The resignation should indicate your last day of work. As a guideline, employees who resign should provide at least two (2) weeks of advance notice. Once HR receives the notification of your resignation, you will be sent an email with the Exit Survey and information regarding the separation process. HR will initiate your Employee Clearance Form via Docusign and it will route to your supervisor and other areas (such as ITS, Copley Library, and Parking Services).
