As a result of our changing work environment, some departments are experiencing an increased workload while others may have employees with increased availability. To help bridge that gap, University Human Resources (UHR) has created a Talent Share Program to support departments in need by connecting the department with campus employees who have the availability and the desire to help in other areas that need temporary support. This program is being offered to assist units in meeting operational demands by providing temporary resources, allowing employees to work in diverse areas.

HOW IT WORKS

• Participating employees have the opportunity to share their skills through a temporary assignment
• Employees will remain on their regular appointment in their home department,  in their same title and pay. This program is not intended to result in any type of salary increase.
• The employee should not exceed working a total of  40 hours in the workweek.  Temporary assignments should not result in putting the employee into an overtime status.
• Performance of the temporary assignment will not be included as part of the PRD process
• Department who have a need for temporary assistance will complete the Talent Share Request Form
• Supervisors should discuss with employees who have the availability and desire to temporarily help in other units and complete a Talent Share Interest Form
• The UHR Administrator will match the two needs based on skills and availability, reach out to all parties involved, and monitor the assignment
