Berea College Employees:
I am pleased to provide you with a revised and electronic version
of the updated Berea College Employee Handbook. This document is
intended to remain a “fluid” document so that future
updates can be made quickly and easily.
Our new Handbook includes historical information, a formal welcome
from the President, the College’s mission, as well as more
workplace-practical matters such as pay, benefits, current insurance
and leave data, and important policies. While this document contains
some policies that apply to both faculty and staff, the Handbook
applies only to non-faculty employees of the College. (Policies
that pertain to faculty are also published in the Faculty
Manual, which is also accessible online.)
All employees are asked to sign and return to People Services “Acknowledgment
Forms” indicating that they have been provided with either
the electronic version or a physical copy of the Handbook. Additional
policies not included are currently under deliberation and will
ultimately require governance action by the General Faculty. As
policies are added or amended, electronic notices will be sent
to employees and departments regarding those changes.
I hope you find the Handbook useful and welcome your comments
or suggestions for improvement. (I already have several in mind
but will have to wait to discuss those in the coming months with
the Administrative Committee members.)
Sincerely,
Carolyn Castle
Director, People Services
