Effective January 4, 2021, the final approval for exception for the release of all personnel transactions will be the responsibility of the respective cabinet officer. Approved Exception Request Forms (ERFs) should be attached to personnel transactions in accordance with the Hiring Freeze Guidelines and submitted directly to the appropriate UHR unit for processing (i.e. transactions should no longer be submitted to OneSource). Each chancellor unit has put in place internal procedures to allow for the monitoring, review, and approval of personnel transactions in accordance with the Hiring Freeze Guidelines.
In order to facilitate the process, we prepared a list of frequently asked questions and common errors –which we hope you will find helpful and updated the following resources:
- Revised Exception Request Form (ERF)
- Hiring Freeze Guidelines and Exception Approval Matrix
- ERF Submission Process
