Employee Guide

All staff members should make certain that their attendance records are kept up-to-date. Records should be completed on a monthly basis and submitted to your supervisor for approval by the 10th day of the following month. Thank you in advance for your compliance with this request.

The Pennsylvania State University has implemented an Ethics & Compliance Hotline (1-800-560-1637) as part of its commitment to the highest standard of ethical behavior. Additional information can be found on the Office of Internal Audit website.

Penn State offers a generous benefits package. We encourage you to review the on-line Overview of Benefits to acquaint yourself with the benefit options available to you as a new full-time employee. The Retirement Plan Comparisons summarizes the differences on several major provisions available through the SERS and TIAA-CREF retirement plans.

After attending your new employee orientation sessions and reading the on-line Employee Benefits documentation, you can elect your benefits on-line through the Employee Self-Service Information Center (ESSIC). [Note: Access to ESSIC is restricted and will not be accessible until your ITS computer access account has been established through your department.]
