Welcome to Human Resources
Our office is working remotely due to COVID-19, however, we will continue to support the university and our processes as the university remains open. To accommodate our modified working situation, we have made changes to the following processes:

New Employees
Each recruitment and position is unique – we encourage you to reach out to your recruitment team contact with questions or concerns regarding the following scenarios:
- Our office recommends postponing start dates whenever possible for any new hires who have not been sent a contract
- Hiring supervisors should work with any employee scheduled to start and who has been sent a contract to see if they are willing to start at a later determined date
The New Employee Basics Orientation has been cancelled.
Benefit Orientations are being held virtually every other Tuesday. Benefit-eligible employees will receive enrollment information via e-mail (benefits@uwosh.edu) by the benefits specialist. The dates for the virtual orientations can be found on the HR Upcoming Events Calendar located on the HR home page. No reservation is necessary.
