Raise calculator, FAQ list available on HR Web site, through EBOs
The West Virginia University Board of Governors (BOG) made history this year by approving the largest pay raise for faculty and staff
in recent University years - committing $26.4 million to support the salary improvement program. The increases apply to employees of the main
campus (including Potomac State College and HSC's Charleston and Eastern medical divisions). Raises are effective Oct. 1, with increases
appearing in Oct. 16 or 31 paychecks, depending on the employee's hiring date. In order to provide more information to employees about the
raises and raise process, the Division of Human Resources has provided a classified employee raise calculator, the salary guidelines for all
employee groups, the salary schedules and entry salary rates for October 1, and a list of frequently asked questions, which you can access by
the links in the box to the right, under "2008 Raise Information."
For further information or for questions not answered here, contact your
Expert Business Office or e-mail classcomp-hr@mail.wvu.edu.
Human Resources issues guidelines for flexible work arrangements
Division of Human Resources officials remind supervisors and employees that flexible work schedules
have been permitted since 1980, with policies in place at the institutional and policy commission
levels. Increased interest, especially in light of rising gasoline and transportation costs, has
prompted many supervisors as well as employees to seek information on these flexible work
arrangements. Therefore, the guidelines, flexible work agreement request form, and some "frequently
asked questions" are now posted to the Employee Relations web site at:
http://www.hr.wvu.edu/emprelations/employeerelations.cfm.
Human Resources recognizes that not all colleges, departments or work units may be able to accommodate
employee requests based on operational needs, but does encourage flexibility to the extent possible
when considering work-life arrangements.
For further assistance regarding various work options or the implementation of these types of
schedules, contact the Employee Relations unit at 293-8168 or
employeerelations@mail.wvu.edu.
This information applies to employees at all WVU campuses and divisions.
Registration FULL for '08 WVU Retirement Planning Conference
Registration for the WVU Retirement Planning Conference, scheduled for Oct. 7, is now full. Although we are not able to accommodate any
additional registrations this year, the Division of Human Resources hopes to offer future events addressing retirement issues and concerns for
WVU employees.

Graystone Advertising Partnership Announced
West Virginia University's Division of Human Resources has initiated a strategic partnership with Graystone Group Advertising that allows
departments and units to place faculty, non-classified, FEAP and classified staff positions in any publication - print or online;
nationally and internationally - by contacting one source. Graystone will then send departments a consolidated invoice which can be paid
with a P-Card. This service is available to all West Virginia University hiring units at all locations across the State.

Your Rights as an Employee
Federal and West Virginia state laws require employers to post notices to employees informing them of their
rights and certain mandated benefits. These notices are posted at various locations around campus. In an effort to further
communicate this information, we now have links to these employee notices from the Human Resources web site at
www.hr.wvu.edu/hrpostings.cfm. Many of our Human Resources policies and
procedures reflect the requirements outlined in these notices.
These notices explain employee rights about topics such as equal employment opportunity (EEO), occupational
safety and health, the Family medical Leave Act (FMLA), unemployment compensation, workers' compensation, the human rights
act, and the rights of employees who are in the armed services among others.
Most of the links to these postings include detailed information about the specified law or regulation as
well as information about the agency that oversees the specific area. For example, the West Virginia Bureau of Employment
Programs Notice To Employees - Unemployment Benefits posting contains information about both full and partial unemployment
benefits, eligibility requirements, the locations of unemployment claims offices, documents that you would need to bring to
the claims office to file a claim, and a schedule of the amount of unemployment you would be eligible for based on your
current annual salary.
If you have questions about these postings or have a question relating to your workplace, please feel free to
contact the Employee Relations unit in Human Resources at 293-5700 extension 5.
Job bulletin changes
Human Resources is pleased to announce that jobs will be posted on-line to its website
http://www.hr.wvu.edu/jobs on a daily basis. Previously, the on-line jobs bulletin
was updated once a week.
Employment will continue to produce a hard copy jobs bulletin on Thursday of each week and all jobs will appear on at least
two hard copy bulletins prior to closing.
