TAP NO. 34: APPOINTMENT OF EXEMPT ADMINISTRATIVE AND PROFESSIONAL EMPLOYEES

All administrative/professional appointments are subject to the terms of the University Charter, Bylaws, Executive Resolutions and the Mission Statement.

Exempt employees will be provided at the time of hiring a letter of appointment, which identifies or includes by reference to other documents, the terms and conditions of employment, a position description outlining responsibilities and the level of compensation. A copy of the letter of appointment must be signed by the appointee and returned to the writer and a copy must be sent to the Office of Human Resource Management for implementation of salary and benefits entitlement. (See copies of appropriate letters attached: attachments 1 to 9.) A letter of appointment is not considered an employment contract. Employment is at the will of the University and is not an appointment for any specified period of time.

The appointment of an exempt employee may be terminated by the University for any reason.
