Clemson University’s Executive Leadership Team and President Jim Clements recently approved a new policy regarding the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). 

This policy does not change the process to request FMLA. Rather, it formalizes the already operational process for requesting and receiving FMLA benefits, while providing consistency across the University. 

The FMLA entitles eligible employees of covered employers to take unpaid, job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons with continuation of group health insurance coverage under the same terms and conditions as if the employee had not taken leave. 

The policy lays out the eligibility requirements to take FMLA leave and the parameters under which FMLA leave may be taken. It also gives employees and supervisors guidance on the required procedure to request FMLA leave. 

Employees who may need to take FMLA leave should review the FMLA policy and the FMLA Guidelines and Packet. 

For initial consultation on FMLA matters, please contact your HR Service Center Manager or Ask-HR. 

Tax season is here – and resources are available to assist Clemson faculty and staff in the annual process.

Through ComPsych, the employee assistance program, Clemson faculty, staff and members of their households can receive up to $20 off when they file their taxes through TurboTax.

ComPsych also offers other tax resources and education through Guidance Resources.

The Office of Human Resources (OHR) is excited to announce a new OnBase-Performance support system, allowing for quicker and more efficient addressing of employees’ questions and issues with the online performance management form.

Employees should submit all questions regarding OnBase-Performance to OHR via the OnBase-Performance Support Form.

The form can also be found on the staff performance management page of the OHR website.

This form will allow employees to document their questions or issues with the form or process and send them directly to the OnBase Support team. Employees will receive automatic email updates when the form is received and resolved, informing them of the status of their question.

Both members of Clemson’s Office of Human Resources and individuals from KeyMark, the vendor supporting the operation of OnBase-Performance, will provide support to employees through the OnBase Support Team. With experience facilitating and troubleshooting OnBase systems, the Keymark representatives will be an added asset to address employee inquiries.

More information about OnBase-Performance and the staff performance management process can be found on the Office of Human Resources website.

OHR launches new training program for department HR and Payroll liaisons

The Office of Human Resources will soon launch a comprehensive onboarding and training program for department-level HR and Payroll liaisons, addressing a need across the University.

The HR and Payroll Liaison (HRPL) Bootcamp Program includes an onboarding plan and checklist for supervisors and the employee and job-specific training. HRPLs will also have access to an online repository of training, job guides, forms and other resources to help them perform their job duties.

HRPLs are critical to the University’s success and provide vital support to their departments. The program was designed to help employees feel confident in their roles, enhancing their work experience.

“HR was excited to partner with existing liaisons to create a program for that ensures new HRPLs have the necessary knowledge and resources from day one. We hope this program will increase their comfort and skills to support the employees in their departments effectively,” said Michelle Cato, senior director of talent management.

More resources are also available to HRPLs and supervisors through the Supervisors and HR/Payroll Liaison section of the OHR website.
