Section 3. 19
Date: January 28, 1974   

RESIGNATION

I.        PURPOSE:

            To establish a procedure to inform the Office of Human Resource Administration and the Payroll Office
            of the resignation of employees in the classified and the non-classified service.

II.       APPLICABLE TO:

            All University employees.

III.      POLICY:

            1.    RESIGNATION WITH NOTICE:    The resignation of an employee is sent directly to the Office of
                  Human Resource Administration on a USP-12 as soon as the department head is informed. Upon
                  receipt of a completed USP-12, the Office of Human Resource Administration completes the required
                  state form to delete the name of the terminating employee from the payroll.

            2.    RESIGNATION WITHOUT NOTICE:    An employee who is absent from duty without notice for five
                  consecutive working days is deemed to have resigned without notice. A USP-12 is used to inform the
                  Office of Human Resource Administration.

            3.    The supervisor must note the employee's last working day and the employee will be compensated for
                   accrued vacation as of that date.  An employee cannot extend his/her resignation date by using
                   his/her vacation leave, compensatory time, sick leave or personal days; i.e., the last day of work is
                   the termination resignation date.
