The Board of Curators has mandated a second training module, this one specifically targeting supervisors. The program is entitled Preventing Employment Discrimination and will be formally announced in early to mid-November. It will be required training for all supervisors but non-supervisors can access it, as well. The primary goal of this course is to enable supervisors to identify, avoid and report behaviors that appear to violate employment discrimination laws. Topics include ADA, FLSA, FMLA, Equal Pay Act, Jobs for Veterans Act, and more. Look for an announcement from campus Administration within the next week or so.
The program is already accessible on one’s myHR web page (myHR>Self Service>Personal Information>HR Training –PED). The estimated completion time is 60-90 minutes; there is a ‘mastery test’ to complete. As before, if you wish to print a Certificate of Completion and send me a copy, I’ll be glad to add it to your personnel file. Otherwise, completion will be electronically tracked by HR.
