EPA Create a New Position
Create a New EPA Position
Departmental growth and restructuring often creates the need for new position support. To request a new position, managers should complete the Request to Classify a New EPA Position (EPA-006) form. The position responsibilities are reviewed to ensure adherence to the guidelines for establishing EPA positions. Managers may find the EPA Analysis Tool helpful in determining whether or not a position should be classified as EPA, based on the responsibilities. Once a position has been approved for EPA designation, Human Resources communicates the necessary information to the department and the College/ Division enters the action to request a position number in the Human Resources Information System.
Requests to create and reclassify (or re-title) faculty positions are coordinated by Human Resources and are requested using the processes described above. However, the Office for Equal Opportunity is the approval authority for establishing or re-titling faculty positions and approval notification will be provided by a representative from that office.
