Staff Separations
Staff who are leaving the university due to voluntary resignation, retirement, or involuntary termination are separated using Personnel Actions. If a full-time or part-time staff member is leaving the university, contact Bridget Fields to process the separation in PA. Departments should only be separating temps and students.
Individuals separating from the University should consult the Separation Checklist for specific items to address before departure.
Managers should review the Separation or Transfer Manager's Guide for specific action steps related to each type of separation or transfer.
Please note, if a staff member is transferring to a different position on campus, no action is needed.
