Post-COVID Workplace Project Update for Aug 17, 2021

The proposed Remote Work regulations are in a 30-day comment period coordinated by the President and System Governance offices to gather final feedback from governance groups and the UA community. The due date for comments is September 9. To submit feedback email the System Governance Office at ua-sogov-office@alaska.edu. The projected effective date of the new regulations will be September 30, 2021. 

The Project Team, Transition Monitoring Team and the Technical Expertise Resources group are continuing to draft support documentation for the new regulations to include training materials, supervisor and employee remote work resources, administrative guidelines and FAQs for remote work at UA. With the assistance of OIT, UA HR is building a website that will contain the information and materials for remote work.
