The System Administration
Office of University-Wide Human Resources is responsible for position classification,
appointment and payroll processing, salary administration, human resource
records m
anagement
and reporting, and benefits administration for all State employees of the
State University of New York (SUNY). This office is the liaison between SUNY
and the Office of the Comptroller of New York State that processes the payroll
for State employees of SUNY and the New York State Department of Civil Service
that has responsibility for classified service appointments and administers
some of the benefits programs available for all employees. It also is the
liaison with the System Office of Employee Relations that represents the University
in its relations with unionized faculty and staff, and with the other employers
of the System Office - the SUNY Construction Fund and the The Research Foundation
of SUNY.
This office is responsible
for providing and interpreting Federal, State, and SUNY polices and procedures,
and laws, rules, and regulations relating to University-Wide Human Resources
for the State operated campuses and for assisting in meeting both internal and
external reporting requirements. Its mission is to provide timely liaison and
support to the campus Human Resources and Payroll staffs to enable them to effectively
appoint and serve a highly qualified and effective workforce and to satisfy
requirements imposed by external State agencies. It provides guidance related
to position classifications and reclassifications, employee appointments, compensation,
and benefits for the following employee categories: administrative officers,
faculty, professional employees, casual employees, classified civil service
employees, graduate and teaching assistants, student assistants, and college
work-study employees as well payments to other "non-employees" such
as honoraria, contractor fees, consulting fees, summer session, or special fund
estimate pay.
We have developed a web-based
University-Wide Human Resources Manual (see link below) to assist campuses
and to create a repository for one master document that can be maintained to
contain current information as close to the information source as possible.
SUNY employees are in a
unique position to provide exceptional service to the many "publics"
SUNY serves - students, associates in the arts, fellow employees, and the global
societies that benefit both from "the arts" and from the contributions
of an educated populace. Regardless of titles or assignment within SUNY, all
employees have an essential role in SUNY's ability to be successful in attracting
the best employees and students to our campuses and to ensure their success.
As an employer, SUNY provides resources and opportunities for employees to excel
in the performance of their duties and responsibilities, for personal and professional
growth and development, and for recognition. We welcome you to SUNY and to this
manual.
Carpe Diem!
