EMPLOYEE TYPE COMPARISON: HIRING SYSTEM, OFFER LETTER, POSITION DESCRIPTION
The following templates contain the required elements for letters of offer. If you have questions regarding modifications please contact your HR Partner.
All employment letters must have the department head and dean level signatures before being presented to the employee and also before the employee’s first day of work. Administrative Stipends have additional signatures that must also be obtained before the letter is presented to the employee.
Bracketed statements in the letter templates are optional or contingency language that may not apply to all appointments. Please remove bracketed statements if not applicable.
Make sure you always ask your prospective employees if they are working anywhere else on campus. This will help prevent employment conflicts such as the loss of a graduate assistantship or personal services contract.
