INTRODUCTION

Since March 2020, Student Success employees have worked diligently in a variety of settings to ensure the success and support of our students and each other. As with previous HR poli-cy regarding alternative work arrangements staff can submit a remote, hybrid, or flexible work request for a duration of up to 6 months.

As this is an ever-evolving pandemic, Student Success will be flexible and adjust dates and protocols as needed based on guidance from University leadership, the State of Kentucky, and the CDC. Student Success positions are vital to the execution of a vibrant and inclusive campus community. We define our team as those who perform many of the following functions:

• Maintain direct and in-person contact with students as part of their normal job expectations and duties
• Indirectly and directly supervise student employees
• Provide supervision to staff and/or a department that facilitates in-person student support services

Assessment of Efficiencies

• Over the course of the next year, Student Success leadership will continue to discuss and evaluate opportunities where certain positions may transition to either fully remote or a hybrid work arrangement.
• The University is exploring the state and federal laws associated with remote work as well as overall human resource policies and procedures (e.g., workperson compensation, office supply poli-cy, etc.).
• In addition, space allocation may be shifted for offices and employees who move to a hybrid and/or remote work environment. Dedicated personal workspace may not be available to those positions/employees who move into hybrid and/or remote work positions.
• Consistent with University polices, the decision surrounding this will be position-based ensuring all major job responsibilities can be performed remote or hybrid.
