4. What happens if a contract offer is declined or No action is taken on the offer?
Workflow Initiated to Employee
Contract Declined or No Action Taken
Notification to HR--Begin Appropriate Action
Declined contract offers—If an employee chooses to decline a contract, they must provide a reason when submitting their declaration.
No action taken on Tenured contract offers—It is optional whether or not tenured staff respond to the contract offer. automated reminders will continue until the 15-day deadline has passed. Once the deadline has passed, tenured contracts will be recorded as accepted as long as they have not been declined.
No action taken on Probationary, ot/pt, or administrative contract offers—Once the 15-day deadline has passed, hr will receive a workflow with this information. At this point, it is assumed the contract is declined and termination procedures begin.
