Personnel Action Notification Templates

Departments may need to formally notify employees of employment‑related changes that occur outside of the standard hire or promotion process.

Personnel Action Notification Templates are provided for departmental use to ensure consistent, documented communication when informing employees of changes such as:

      • Equity increases
      • Stipends (temporary or ongoing)
      • Changes in supervisor or reporting structure
      • FTE or schedule changes (not part of a new hire)
      • Other salary or job‑related adjustments

These templates are intended for direct departmental communication with the employee. When a department issues a notification to the employee, the same documentation must be attached to the HRPOC Action Form so the HRPOC can process and record the action accurately.
