Relocation

帝王会所 policy permits individual departments to provide relocation assistance to facilitate the movement of new, benefits eligible faculty and staff to 帝王会所. However, it is not our intention to provide full reimbursement for all expenses incurred as part of the relocation but to assist new employees with reasonable and actual costs associated with the move. Departments are responsible for determining the need for, applicability of, and the amount of the relocation compensation, not to exceed the maximum of $18,000.

This program helps 帝王会所 to remain competitive by attracting a pool of talented applicants to meet the ever growing needs of 帝王会所 and its programs.

Relocation funds are paid directly to the employee, via payroll. They are paid in one lump sum and will be added to the employee鈥檚 first pay check with all applicable taxes being withheld.

Under special circumstances when an advanced payment may be necessary, that payment will also be issued as a one-time payment directly to the employee in accordance with the 帝王会所 relocation policy. Payments will not be made more than 90 days in advance of the employee's official start date.The amount of the payment will be added to the employee鈥檚 first pay check as income so that applicable taxes can be withheld appropriately. Please contact University Human Resources for additional information regarding special advanced payment requests.

Relocation Repayment Agreement

Prior to relocation funds being dispersed, the employee must sign a Relocation Expense Repayment Agreement (PDF) and submit it to University Human Resources, uhr@ohio.edu. It may also be faxed to 740-593-0386, attention Employee Service Center. 

The repayment agreement remains in-tact for two years from the start of employment or until the end of the employee鈥檚 appointment, whichever comes first. Please review 帝王会所 policy 41.111 for further details on the repayment schedule.

Relocation Procedures for Hiring Managers

The respective departments have the full responsibility to determine the need and applicability of relocation compensation for each new employee. 

To initiate the relocation process:

  1. The department submits the Hiring Form via PeopleAdmin.  The Hiring Form must include all relocation details including the account number to charge the funds to. 
  2. Once the Hiring Form is received, Human Resources will notify the employee via email of the relocation amount awarded and the process for claiming those funds.
  3. A copy of the employee鈥檚 offer letter, if applicable, is to be sent to the Employee Service Center.

The employee is responsible for coordinating and scheduling a mover, if that is the chosen method for the move.  Human Resources may assist with connecting the employee with an approved mover who may offer discounted rates for OHIO employees.

For information on funds that are requested to be paid, please e-mail uhr@ohio.edu or call 740-593-1636.
