Operational Modifications will continue for Risk Mangement and Safety through October 11th. 

Per Auburn University Human Resources:

• Every campus office and unit must remain open and staffed to maintain operational effectiveness, including but not limited to assisting visitors, responding to telephone calls and fulfilling basic functions. Supervisors should develop plans, which may include staggered or rotating shifts, to meet this requirement while ensuring physical distancing and other safety protocols.
•  Staff may work remotely when not required in the workplace as directed by their supervisor.
•  While on campus, faculty and staff must comply with all related university policies and guidance, including but not limited to those on physical distancing, face coverings, events and entry and exit procedures.
•  Faculty and staff are required to watch and acknowledge a safety video.
•  Faculty and staff who cannot perform their job duties due to a COVID-19 related issue, such as an underlying health condition or childcare, should consult guidelines for the three categories of leave announced earlier this year and contact their supervisor.
•   Supervisors should seek guidance from Risk Management and Safety for questions about COVID-19 workplace safety and health and Facilities Management to request services such as occupancy assessments, office configurations and cleaning.
•  Supervisors should consult the supervisors guidance material from Human Resources about how to handle COVID-19 situations that may arise.
•  The Auburn Medical Clinic is dedicated for students, faculty and staff. Anyone with COVID-19 symptoms should not come to campus but immediately call 334-844-9825 prior to traveling to the clinic. Faculty and staff are expected to communicate with supervisors and seek approval of any absences for which they are unavailable for work.
• All university travel will continue to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Essential travel will be permitted at the discretion of the executive vice president or provost.
