Updated Faculty and Staff Handbook Now Online
The latest edition of the Faculty and Staff Handbook is now ready. The handbook is available online. Bookmarking the page is suggested. To conserve resources and cut costs, printed handbooks will be distributed only to employees who don't have access to a computer as a part of their jobs. Printed copies will be distributed over the next several days.
Employees who do not receive a printed copy, but feel they need one, should call Human Resources to request one; however, copies are very limited. Contact HR at 481-6840 or 481-6096 or hr@ipfw.edu. |
