Staff Handbook

All regular, benefited University positions must be listed with University of Arkansas Human Resources if they are classified and listed with the Office of Affirmative Action if they are non-classified. Human Resources places general advertisements for classified University positions in local job-listing publications, and lists current vacancies on the University web site (http://hr.uark.edu/employment/), and on the printed listing described above, but departments may also run advertisements approved by Human Resources for specific classified positions or groups of positions. All non-classified positions must be advertised in the appropriate recruitment sources, in accordance with the University's affirmative action plan. Current employees are encouraged to inquire about promotion and transfer opportunities through Human Resources.

Selection for positions is carried out by the departments in which the vacancies exist and is made on the basis of job-related qualifications and experience and in a manner consistent with the University's Affirmative Action and Equal Employment Opportunity policies described in Section 3.5 of this handbook.
