Otherwise, we will assume you\u2019ve spoken with the employee and that the extension is mutually agreeable.<\/p>\n<p>No later than the employee\u2019s expected last day, or at any point during the assignment, you can go to the UTempHires\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/myhr.admin.washington.edu\/uwnetid\/utsext\/depthome.aspx#active\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Department Dashboard<\/a>\u202fto request an extension of your employee\u2019s appointment.\u202f Next to their name on the\u202f<strong>Active Jobs<\/strong>\u202ftab, click on the\u202f<strong>Extend Job<\/strong>\u202flink. This will open a new Outlook email message to UTemp through which you may fill in the requested end date and reason for extension. Or you may simply send an email to UTemp to request an extension.

If your unit requests the assignment be extended, you may reply to that email with a new end-employment date. Otherwise, the employee\u2019s employment will end, and the position will be closed.<\/p>\n<p>If you need to end the assignment earlier than scheduled, contact your recruiter. Inform your employee of their new end date if you are comfortable doing so. Otherwise, we will be happy to assist you with this communication.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note: Nonpermanent classified employees employed through UTemp must be provided at least one day notice if ending an assignment earlier than expected, or paid in lieu of notice.<\/strong> For example, if you tell your temporary employee that tomorrow is their last day, then appropriate notice is given. However, if you call the UTemp office requesting to end the position the same day, UTemp will advise the employee to add hours to their time tracking for an additional day to be paid to them.<\/p>\n<p>After the assignment ends, the employee\u2019s manager will receive an email with a request to complete an evaluation. This asks for feedback related to the employee\u2019s performance and welcomes your comments related to the service your unit received from your recruiter and\/or UTemp in general. While completing the evaluation is not required, it is valuable to UTemp as we consider placing the individual again and let us know how we might improve our services.<\/p>\n<p>UTemp will wait until the employee\u2019s hours worked and time off has been paid out, as appropriate, before we terminate the employee and close the position.<\/p>\n<h4>When to contact UTemp<\/h4>\n<p>We are here as your partners and are eager to help. Please contact us if:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You need to end an assignment earlier than expected. If a department no longer has funding or work for an employee, or the employee is no longer a fit for the department&#8217;s ongoing staffing needs, UTemp will look for another candidate or end the assignment and close the position in your supervisory org.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019d like to keep the employee longer than originally expected. We&#8217;ll look up the employee&#8217;s work eligibility to see if they may be extended. If so, UTemp will process this action in Workday for your department.<\/li>\n<li>You have a request related to data changes in Workday. UTemp will handle these transactions.<\/li>\n<li>An employee is not meeting expectations. We will work with you on a solution, whether that\u2019s finding a different candidate or changing the current employee\u2019s assigned duties and pay.<\/li>\n<li>You are interested in transferring a UTemp employee to a direct-hire position. If the employee hasn&#8217;t worked three months with UTemp, an additional fee may be charged to the department to ensure our business can recoup our expenses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn about onboarding your temporary employee, beginning and ending assignments, and partnering with UTemp throughout the duration of the temp assignment. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":0,"parent":2234,"menu_order":30,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"no","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2245","page","type-page","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
