Announcements

Memorandums of Agreement (MOAs) between GOER and the CSEA and PEF Unions have been signed to grant relief from contractual limits on vacation maximums because of staffing needs resulting from the State’s response to the Novel Coronavirus COVID-19.

The MOAs allows eligible employees, CSEA and PEF, to carry vacation credits in excess of the 40-day maximum that would otherwise be forfeited on April 1, 2020 until December 31, 2020.  

In accordance with guidelines provided by Governor Cuomo, the New York State health department, and the State University of New York (SUNY) Chancellor's office, SUNY Oswego continues to take steps to minimize COVID19 exposure. 

At this time, we are suspending job searches as we work together to minimize the exposure to COVID19. The health and safety of our candidates and our community remain our utmost priority.

Dependent Care Account (DCAA) helps with expenses for elder care, disabled dependent care, or child care expenses. If you are already enrolled for 2020, but do not currently have these expenses due to your child not being in school or child care, you can change your deductions.

Operations at the SUNY Oswego Human Resource and Payroll offices are being handled remotely as a precautionary measure due to the current COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) pandemic.

 Email is the most reliable form of communication to ensure we receive and respond to your inquiry in a timely manner.  Please email Human Resources at [email protected] and/or Payroll at [email protected].

We have been notified by the Office of the State Comptroller that due to the current COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) pandemic, all paychecks and direct deposit advices will be mailed home directly from The Treasury to the address printed on the front of your check. This change is effective with the next check beginning March 26, 2020 which is Student Assistant and Work Study payday. All paychecks and direct deposit advices for Students, Staff and Faculty will also be mailed this way until further notice

The NYS & CSEA Partnership for Education and Training will be offering several opportunities for you to acquire the coursework you will need to complete to qualify for appointment to the new Administrative Assistant I job title.  For more information, please view attached flyer.

The NYS & CSEA Partnership for Education and Training is pleased to announce four new online learning certificate programs for CSEA-represented New York State employees. These four certificate programs will also serve as the alternatives to the four mandatory in-person courses required for the new Administrative Assistant Traineeship.

The Customer Service Certificate Program provides a self-directed way for employees to acquire useful tips for working effectively with customers.

As a reminder, SUNY Oswego employees can access the Human Resources Self-Service module which allows employees to update personnel information via the SUNY HR portal (same system used for time and attendance).

During negotiations for the 2016-2022 State/UUP Agreement, the parties agreed to develop guidelines and a methodology for a salary equity study to be conducted at each campus. The purpose of such study is to identify compression and inversion for UUP-represented employees. Salary inversion may exist when new employees are hired at salaries higher than experienced employees; compression may exist when salaries of experienced employees fail to maintain distance above salaries of new employees.
