SUNY Telecommuting Policy Update

[Human Resource Services]

SUNY’s pilot Telecommuting Program has been extended through December 31,
2022.  However, as a residential campus focused on supporting our students,
telecommuting is not operationally feasible for many job functions during
the academic year.  Determining which job functions are eligible for
telecommuting is subject to management discretion, based on operational
need.

Vice Presidents will be contacted in regards to extending the few positions
that were approved to telecommute prior to the summer break.  Any other
employees wishing to participate should submit a new application to their
immediate supervisor.

Telecommuting is an alternate work arrangement that allows employees to
conduct some of their work away from the official work site.  Under the
Telecommuting Program, employees will be expected to have a regular
in-person presence at the official work location.  Employees should not
expect to be approved to telecommute on a full-time or near full-time
basis.  The number of days and which days an individual employee may be
allowed to telecommute is determined by management based on operational
need.  However, the maximum allowable days per pay period that may be
approved for telecommuting is five (5) workdays and in no event will an
employee telecommute for their full obligation.

Anyone contemplating enrollment should read the policy
<https://www.plattsburgh.edu/_documents/human-resources/sunywide-telecommuting-program-08022021.pdf>
in its entirety.  Every application will be considered on an individual
basis.

To request to participate, an interested employee must submit a
completed Telecommuting
Application and Work Plan
<https://www.plattsburgh.edu/_documents/human-resources/suny-telecommuting-application-and-workplan-fillable.pdf>
to their immediate supervisor.  Final approval rests with the Vice
President.
