Mines Exemption Process & Request
Getting Started
Use the following instructions and form to request exemptions (including re-exemptions) and creating job descriptions (including changes to existing jobs already exempted) for Administrative Faculty, Research Support, Research Faculty, and Library Faculty positions.
Please allow up to five working days between submission of the completed form and obtaining a final decision that can be implemented. This time frame can vary depending on the availability of staff to review, recommend, and approve the exemption.
Email the Office of Budget and Financial Planning to request a new position number. A position number is required in order for the new position to be exempted. Receiving a position number does not guarantee exemption or funding.
*Note: For new Classified positions, HR will request the position number from the Office of Budget and Financial Planning once the proper classification has been determined.
Submitting this Job Description template will be sufficient for the exemption process outlined in the Policy on Establishing or Changing Employment Category.
IMPORTANT: Attach an organization chart showing this position’s location within the college, department, or unit.
