| Employment Beyond Retirment |
The purpose of this action is to revise the policy to be consistent with the recently revised Board of Regents policy. The Board of Regents revsion was to allow insitutional presidents to approve the rehiring of retirees rather than requiring Board of Regents approval. The Board of Regents policy had also been updated to reflect more flexibility on the compensation that may be paid to a rehired retiree so the updated policy reflects that change as well. |
