During most of the year, the Office of Human Resources conducts new employee orientation sessions each week on Mondays, beginning at 9:00 a.m. in the Office of Human Resources in the Administration Annex.
We want to remind you that during this time of year, fewer orientation sessions will be offered. This is due to the reduction in potential training time within departments for new employees and the cost of paying for holidays for new employees who work such a short period of time before holidays occur.
To accommodate departmental needs to begin new staff during this time period, new employee orientation sessions will continue on a weekly basis through Monday, November 15. There will not be a session on November 22 (Thanksgiving week). The orientation will continue with sessions on November 29 and December 6.
The practice of having new employee orientation sessions every Mondays will resume Monday, January 3, 2005.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions, please contact me (Martha A. Turnbull) or Vicki Estabrook, director of employment and employee relations, at 274-1207.
