A Layoff occurs when an appointment ends before the term end date due to lack of funds or lack of programmatic need.

An involuntary Reduction in Time occurs when the department reduces the appointment percentage before the term end date due to lack of work or lack of programmatic need.

Layoff or Involuntary Reduction in Time does not require vetting but does require review and approval by the Campus Academic Personnel Office. Layoff documents must be provided to the SOM Dean’s office with sufficient time to review and provide notice to the affected Faculty.
