Should vacant non-faculty academic positions be handled differently than other vacant positions? How often can departments review their position rosters and inactivate stale positions?
Vacant non-faculty academic positions do not need to be handled any differently than other vacant positions. Faculty positions will be inactivated at separation and will not be vacant.
The Central Budget Office (CBO) will review the University's rosters to audit faculty positions to ensure data integrity. While the CBO recommends that departments audit their non-faculty academic position data on a monthly basis, it will be up to the departments’ discretion to decide how to audit these position rosters and how to inactivate positions that are no longer necessary.
