Employment Policies

Policies provide guidance to ensure that there is compliance with employment law and that employees are treated consistently. They ensure and document good communication with employees and promote a pleasant work environment.

The role of Human Resources is to:

  • Interpret policies
  • Help employees understand policies
  • Ensure consistent implementation of policies
  • Investigate violations or inconsistent or incorrect application of policies
  • Protect the University from risk
  • Evaluate and recommend appropriate changes and revisions based on the needs of the University.
