Managers should consult with their designated Human Resources - Client Services Center Senior Analyst, Labor and Employee Relations with any concerns. Communication may be by phone, modem, fax, pager, or other agreed upon means. Equipment may be owned and maintained by the employee or by the University. Independent contractors are not UC employees, therefore, these guidelines do not apply. Either the employee or management may propose a telecommuting work option for the employee.
Management makes the final determination.
The employee and supervisor assess the feasibility of telecommuting and determine telecommuting options. The supervisor's manager reviews the Agreement for departmental consistency. The manager should send a signed copy of Telecommuting Agreement to the department's Human Resources - Client Services Center Senior Analyst, Labor and Employee Relations, for review, approval and union notice, if necessary. Selection should include reasonable accommodation for employees who are permanently or temporarily disabled. Decide if a job is amenable in part or in whole, to being performed away from the main office.
