Reviewing and Making Changes to Your Beneficiaries

It is always a good idea to periodically review your beneficiaries for your retirement system and update them, especially if you have had any recent changes in your life.  The Office of Human Resources does not have access to view or change your beneficiaries, so you will need to do that on your own.  Choosing a beneficiary for your retirement system is very important.

Important Updates from Human Resources

In follow up to the email you received on Friday from President Stanley, Human Resources would like to share some important updates with you regarding your work status. 

The Governor has extended his directive for all non-essential State employees to work remotely until at least April 29. As a result, all telecommuting applications previously approved and on file with Human Resources now have an extended approval date through at least April 29, 2020. Please continue to work directly with your supervisor on your individual work plan.
