Human Resources Update
Action/Reasons – Terminations from State Service
• For employees receiving additional salary or benefits:
– For any type of Retirement, if Action is either Termination or Termination
With Benefits, you must rehire using “Add Concurrent Job”
• If Action is any type but Retirement and either Termination
or Termination With Benefits:
– For an additional payment, go to employee’s job data row and add a row
using action of “Rehire”; enter Reason of “NOE – No employment –
Payout Only”
– For a benefits issue, go to employee’s job data row and add a row using
action of “Rehire”; enter Reason of “Cancel Separation”
13
Human Resources Update
Action/Reasons - Suspensions
• Leave of Absence – SUS - Suspension 30 days or greater
– The former description stated Suspension has been changed to
“Suspension 30 days or greater" as of July 8, 2005. This action/reason
combination will cause a COBRA event.
• Leave of Absence – SUL - Suspension less than 30 days
– This is a new action/reason combination to identify those employees
placed on a leave of absence due to a “Suspension for less than 30
days”. The combination will not cause a COBRA event and will be treated
like the illness types of Leave of Absences.
14
Human Resources Update
Action/Reasons - Pending Disability Retirement
• Leave of Absence – DRP – Pending Disability Retirement
– This a new action reason combination to extend health benefits for a
period of 12 months while a decision is pending for an employee who has
applied for a Disability Retirement (either Service Connected or Non-
Service Connected).
– When an employee applies for a Disability Retirement (either Service
Connected or Non-Service Connected) the agency no longer terminates
an employee. The employee is placed on a Leave of Absence and uses
the reason code of DRP – Pending Disability Retirement. This will ensure
benefits are processed through Billing. The benefit coverage is for a
maximum period of 12 months.
15
Human Resources Update

Quick Fix #3 – Error Correction Procedure

whenever possible. Example: working test periods that are off by one day
or EWAV for promotions by reclassification

making the correction

problems and to encourage efforts to work with agencies to alleviate the
recurrence of problems.
