New Hire Information

All Faculty and Staff new hires must come to the Human Resources Office before being put on the payroll.

Staff will have a benefits orientation the first day (or first week) and complete new hire paperwork with a representative from Human Resources. A full new hire orientation program is conducted several times per year (typically February, June and October). Participation in the one day session is mandatory as it reviews the College's sexual harassment and drug/alcohol policies.
Faculty must make an on-campus appointment with Human Resources to review applicable benefits, to complete the I-9 and other required employment forms, and to be placed on the monthly payroll. Full-time faculty will receive information about new faculty orientation, which takes place in August.

You will be asked to complete several forms and provide documentation to satisfy IRS and INS requirements.
