The recognition dates have been verified for the employees listed and adjusted for any breaks in service in payroll of one (1) month or more. Times spent on approved leaves of absence are not considered breaks in service. In addition, time spent in "student" titles (Student Assistant, Project Aide, Graduate Assistant, etc.) or titles of "Fellow" or those with "Casual" or "Adjunct" designation are not considered applicable towards Upstate Medical University service recognition.
The Upstate Medical University recognition date is a local date element reflecting combined years of service at Upstate only and has no bearing on official seniority or anniversary dates such as vacation, anniversary, state seniority, etc. If you have any questions or any changes in regards to an employee’s recognition date, please contact Megan Chase at [email protected].
Attendance at an employee recognition luncheon is optional. Day shift staff who are working on that day should report their normal meal period. If it occurs outside of an employee's schedule or on a pass day, attendance at the event will not be considered time worked/paid time.
