This communication provides information regarding telework agreements for classified employees, hourly employees, and A/P Faculty.
Changes to Telework Agreements for Classified Employees
The Department of Human Resources Management (DHRM) and the Virginia Information Technology Agency (VITA) have developed an automated Telework Agreement Application. Supervisors of classified employees will receive further instructions over the next several weeks about using this new process for telework agreements.
The approval process remains unchanged. In line with , requests for one day a week require approval from the University President. Requests for two days a week require approval from the Governor鈥檚 Cabinet Secretary and requests for more than two days per week will require approval from the Governor鈥檚 Chief of Staff. Human Resources will submit agreements for two or more days per week only in exceptional circumstances. More information about the new automated process will be provided soon.
Annual Review Process
It is time for the annual review of telework agreements. Supervisors should confirm that their employees' agreements are up to date. Any changes to work location, schedule, or other terms must be updated and submitted accordingly. For this annual review, only A/P Faculty and hourly telework agreements need to be reviewed and updated. The automated process for classified employees is still being implemented. Updated Telework Agreements for A/P Faculty, A/P Medical Faculty, and hourly employees should be submitted to HRRecruitment@odu.edu.
Emergency Closings
In accordance with DHRM Policy 1.61 Teleworking, emergency closings may require expanded telework to ensure service and business continuity. Supervisors should clearly communicate expectations, including for remote workers, for emergency closings.
Important Note for Medical Campus Employees
Medical campus employees approved for telework are expected to work their regular schedules unless supervisors approve an alternate schedule. If you have any questions specific to the medical campus and telework, please contact VHS-HR@国产伦理.EDU.
