Personnel Policies for Staff Members Creation/Revision Process

Creation/revision of policy is initiated by:

  • Federal law
  • State law
  • Regents' policy
  • President
  • EVP - Chief Operatin Officer
  • VP - Systemwide Human Resources
  • Locations

Next, the HR policy unit, sometimes with the assistance of a workgroup, will research, consult on and/or analyze the subject of the proposed policy or revision.

The HR policy unit will then reconvene and compose a policy draft.

The policy draft is then distributed for Management Consultation.

Following this stage, comments are incorporated, as appropriate.

The policy draft will then be distributed for Formal Review/Employee Notice.

Once again, following this stage, comments are incorporated, as appropriate.

The policy draft will then be distributed for PAC/PSC Approval.

The final policy is then prepared for issuance.

The final policy is then issued by the President.

And, as the last step in the process, the policy is posted in the Policy Library.
