This guidance is based upon the following assumptions:  \nBy summer semester,  \n● Public health authorities will have relaxed or rescinded public health orders related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, it assumes there will be fewer limitations on gatherings, no social distance or mask requirements, and no surveillance testing.  \n● Vaccinations will be readily available to all employees and students who want them.  \n● Enhanced cleaning protocols and HVAC optimization will continue for the summer and fall semester.  \nSummer and fall mark a likely transition to a post pandemic environment, not an abrupt return to“normal”. Accordingly, departments should maintain some flexibility in determining if, how, and when they implement the varied approaches to work discussed below. Particular consideration should be given to caregivers whose options may still be limited as a result of care facilities notreopening consistent with our campus timeline.  \nSummer and fall also provide an opportunity to implement hybrid work pilots to test the success of a work arrangement and to make adjustments before adopting new work arrangements long term.  \nPlease note, in the unlikely event our community experiences a new COVID-19 wave in the summer or fall, we have tools in place to guide the campus response at that time.  \nGuiding Principles  \nThe following Guiding Principles have been adopted by the campus and provide criteria against which unit decisions should be assessed. The optimal work environment should:  \n● Advance the mission of the campus and affected units  \n● Enhance and not detract from the student experience or research and creative work  \n● Include planning for impact on diversity, equity and inclusion  \n● Include planning for impact on sense of place, community and affinity  \n● Increase/maintain hiring, engagement and retention  \n● Support the health & wellness of our community  \n● Support responsible stewardship of resources  \n● Cultivate a work culture built on trust and productivity  \nGuidance for Officers, College, Institute and School Leadership, Administrators and Supervisors  \nUniversity officers have the discretion to delegate the authority to decide if individual employees work on campus, remotely, or a combination of both (hybrid model) , and whether to temporarily or permanently reallocate space (see below) , to the leadership of units within their organization, including institutes, schools, departments, programs, and other administrative units. The officer and their delegates remain ultimately responsible for the equitable allocation of the modality and space arrangements of their employees.  \nThe primary consideration in making this determination is the impact the work arrangement has on the employee’s ability to perform their job in a way that supports the mission of the campus and the unit.  \nOfficers also need to balance the unit’s ability to accomplish their mission with the critical role staff play in creating a welcoming, vibrant campus environment for our students, and a shared sense of community on campus that has been lacking over the last year. Officers should account for impact to the sense of community and the student experience in determining work arrangements for their units.  \nWhen prioritizing which employees should work on campus, supervisors should consult the guiding principles above and also consider whether:  \n● The employee’s job duties support the health and welfare of students, faculty, and staff and/or support the academic, research, creative work or programmatic needs of students and/or the on-campus student, faculty and staff experience, or  \n● The duties support mission-critical work includin","cbCaihWDqID4mOhR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihWDqID4mOhR","pdf",85305,"English","# Guiding Principles\n## Guidance for Officers and Leadership\n## Remote Work Questionnaire and Tools\n## Meetings and Required Gatherings","[{\"question\":\"How should supervisors decide which employees work on campus versus remotely?\",\"answer\":\"They should use the guiding principles and consider whether employees’ job duties support student health and welfare, mission-critical work, and on-campus research, teaching, and support functions that require physical presence.\"}]","Staff Work Environment Guidance for Summer and Fall 2021 | PDF"]
