Happy Monday, ACUPA Members: I just received endorsement from President's Cabinet to proceed with the development of a policy addressing employees who live and subsequently work for UND outside the state of North Dakota. Due to potential issues such as termination pay, overtime, direct deposit requirements, minimum wage rates, new hire reporting, paid leave, new-hire background checks, withholding taxes, state unemployment insurance, workers' compensation coverage, and state registration issues, it is vital that requests to allow employees to live and work outside North Dakota are carefully reviewed and approved in advance to avoid potential liability issues for UND.
Is your institution dealing with the same issue and if so, have you addressed it through policy? Any feedback or examples would be greatly appreciated. All the best, JEN Jennifer Rogers Special Projects Assistant to the VPFO Office of the Vice President for Finance and Operations University of North Dakota Twamley Hall, Room 314 264 Centennial Drive Stop 8378 Grand Forks, ND 58202-8378 O 701.777.3511 | D 701.777.4392 F 701.777.4082 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> | UND.edu/finance-operations<http://www.UND.edu/finance-operations>
