When change occurs in department programs, staffing patterns or resources a reorganization may be required to ensure resources are aligned with goals and efficiently utilized. Reorganizations include changes to a department structure which result in multiple positions being impacted.

All reorganizations require a formal review by University Human Resources. Additional approvals are required depending on the type of staffing changes and the scope of the proposed changes to the structure and roles. All reorganizations require a summary of what prompted the review, the organizational review process and the proposed staffing /structural changes. In addition, current and proposed organizational charts, new and revised job descriptions and a costing analysis are required. Compensation Services partners with department heads and HR Business Partners on the development of the reorganizational material and the approval process.
