HRS move scheduled for mid-April The Office of Human Resource Services will be moving to a new location off campus in mid-April. The new building, located at 903 West University Avenue (formerly the BellSouth Building), will be home to all HRS offices currently located in Stadium West as well as Academic Personnel, currently located in Tigert Hall, and the Education and General/Auxiliaries satellite office, currently located at the Reitz Union. A new HRS Service Center, expanded training rooms, newly renovated facilities, and a prominent location bridging UF with the Gainesville community are just some of the features of the new site that UF faculty and staff can look forward to. |
Employees must report 2006-07 compensatory leave by May 27 All special and overtime compensatory leave on balance as of May 17 will be cashed out during the pay period ending May 31, 2007. Overtime and special compensatory leave earned after May 31 will be part of the 2007-08 fiscal year balances. In keeping with past practice, departments are encouraged to require employees to use accrued compensatory leave prior to the cash out to minimize compensatory leave cash-out payments. |
Two ePAFS needed for terminating employees who cash out leave Please remember that, in addition to processing an ePAF to terminate the job record for an employee, an additional ePAF is needed for any leave payout due to that employee. To ensure the timely processing of the leave payout, please make sure the termination is processed before the termination date; the leave payment is processed as soon as all of the leave has been entered for the last pay period worked; and adjustments have been processed including, but not limited to, check cancellation. To assist you with the submission of a leave cash-out ePAF, a list of guidelines has been developed. These guidelines may be found at http://www.hr.ufl.edu/managers/ePAF.htm. Please direct all questions related to leave cash-out to Central Leave Administration at 392-5732 (SC 622-5732) or e-mail central-leave@ufl.edu. Please note that leave cash-outs with a gross total of $2,000 or more are rolled automatically into the Retirement Special Pay Plan. More information may be found on the HRS web site at http://www.hr.ufl.edu/benefits/specialpayplan.htm. If you have any questions related to the Retirement Special Pay Plan, please contact University Benefits and Retirement at 392-4941 (SC 622-4941) or retirement@ufl.edu.

New directive regulates use of cell phone and other wireless devices The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires that all cell phone calls by the university be specifically and properly identified as to their purpose. This requirement significantly increases UF's record-keeping responsibility and has resulted in the university implementing a new Cell Phone and Other Wireless Communication Devices Directive that provides guidance and makes options available to departments.
