Hiring and Salary Approval Process
All adjunct hires need to receive written hire letters. (Student labor and work-study students for the present are excluded) The templates for these hire letters, both for salaried adjunct or hourly adjunct, can be found in the FORMS section on the UNH HR web site. These hires also have to have background checks. (Any volunteers also must undergo a background check). The process is the same as for permanent status (benefitted)hires, the hiring unit makes the background check request in the on-line process located on the UNH HR web site under ‘Background Checks’ that is under Employment Resources. There may be some rare exceptions granted from the background check process that should be discussed before-hand with your UNH HR Partner. The background check must be complete before the adjunct hire or the volunteer begins their services as well.
