The Office of Human Resources provides essential support for employees funded by sponsored programs. Its responsibilities include processing appointments, conducting new employee orientations, maintaining personnel records, and overseeing leave management. The office ensures compliance with policies across the Research Foundation, SUNY, and University systems, while also managing payroll, benefits, and time reporting. Additional services include job classification and compensation guidance, employee relations support, and access to training and development resources.
Normally the largest expenditure area in a sponsored award is personnel costs. Staff members in Sponsored Funds and Sponsored Programs work together to be sure that proposals properly classify personnel, as well as budget sufficient salary.
The Associate Vice President for Research is responsible for policy matters associated with RF employment and ensuring that all appointments are consistent with Research Foundation, SUNY and University guidelines.
