COVID-19 Telecommuting Protocol and Guidance

 

Beginning immediately, we are asking departmental leaders to begin working with their teams to identify employees and positions (as well as functions) who must report in-person to work and those whose work can be completed remotely.

Guidance for Designating Employee Positions with Respect to University Required Telecommuting

Category I: Mandatory Required on Campus or at Health Care Facilities (can be an employee or multiple employees in a function)

  • Main Campus Staff: Employees and/or functions designated as mandatory, requiring employees to be physically located on campus in order to maintain campus systems and operations

  • U of U Health Academics Faculty and Staff: All employees necessary for the direct on-site support of clinical operations, patient care, and essential research activities if they are healthy and without symptoms (see flowchart)

  • Hospitals and Clinics Staff: All employees necessary for the direct on-site support of clinical operations and patient care, if they are healthy and without symptoms

Category II: Not Required on Campus (will fall into one of the two sub-groups based upon circumstances)

  • A. Those able to telework: Employees and/or functions where employees are able to work remotely in order to maintain campus systems, campus operations, clinical operations, and patient care

  • B. Those unable to telework: Employees and/or functions where employees are unable to telework and for whom there are no alternate work assignments or work available. Examples may include: select part-time positions, select student workers, and ushers

Please use the Campus and U of U Health Academics COVID-19 Telecommuting Form below for instances where an employee is asked to telecommute as a result of COVID-19. All forms should be sent to askhr@utah.edu.

All employees who telecommute are required to follow the University’s Telecommuting Policy for Staff Employees (Policy 5-140) and Telecommuting Guides (Guideline 5-140).
