Termination of Employment

Staff planning to leave service should advise supervisors and library administrators as soon as possible of intention to resign. Permanent and temporary appointment staff must notify the Director of the Library in writing no later than:

• 30 calendar days in advance for Exempt/Associate Staff.
• 30 calendar days in advance for Faculty, unless provided otherwise by faculty appointment contract (see USM BOR Policy II-1.00 para I.C.6. stipulating resignation at end of appointment period "except by mutual agreement between the appointee and the CEO of the institution.")
• 2 weeks prior to resignation for Non-Exempt/Classified Staff (the Director of the Library may require longer notice up to 30 days.)

Upon receipt of an employee's resignation or upon determination that an individual will be involuntarily separated from service, the departmental payroll preparer will draft a UMBC "Notice of Separation" including terminal leave balances as appropriate. This form will be double-checked by other administrative staff and then completed as appropriate by the employee's supervisor and/or the Library Director or designee, then forwarded to the UMBC Department of Human Resources for further processing.
