Introduction

This Guide was prepared to assist University employees. It supersedes any prior written instructions issued
by the University that are inconsistent with its provisions.
Full-time employees will attend a general orientation session conducted by Human Resources. However,
we ask that supervisors communicate to full-time employees (and as well as part-time employees)
information specific to their department. On the first day of employment supervisors should advise new
employees of the following:

• the need to report to Human Resources to complete Federal and Indiana State Withholding Forms and Form I-9
• assigned meal periods
• office hours/regular work schedule
• restroom locations
• refreshment/break/meal areas
• emergency exit locations
• outgoing U.S. and campus mail locations
• pay issue dates
• paycheck distribution
• the procedure for reporting absences
• the procedure for requesting time off
• parking locations
• other items of interest specific to your department
• In addition, new employees should 
• be introduced to coworkers and others with whom they will have regular contact,
• contact Information Services for e-mail and network accounts, if applicable,
• contact DePauw Public Safety (x4261) to register their vehicle(s), and
• contact I.D. Office (x4253) to obtain their DePauw I.D. Card.
