Employee Resignation and Termination Policy

Purpose

This policy informs employees who are resigning or terminating their employment from Columbia College, of their obligations to provide notice of the resignation or termination. The policy also informs employees of the administrative processes relating to the resignations and terminations.

Scope

This policy applies to all employees at Columbia College.

Policy

Support staff employees are requested to provide at least a two (2) week notification of resignation to their supervisor. Four (4) weeks notice is requested from Administrative staff.

When an employee is terminating, supervisors must send a Payroll Information Form (PIF) to the Payroll Office. Granting of vacation or sick leave during the resignation period is subject to supervisor discretion. Employees are asked to schedule an appointment with the Human Resources Office for an exit interview. The Human Resources Office will collect office/building keys, uniforms, staff identification cards and other related items. Supervisors of employees off of the main campus can work with Human Resources to determine a plan to collect items. The terminating employee's final paycheck will be issued at the next regular payroll date or in accordance with State law.
