4 Representatives shall be elected by and from the ranks of all staff members at the University of Vermont who are part of the career/pay system. When a Council representative vacancy exists within a unit/division, all eligible staff members within that unit/division must be provided an opportunity to run for election and serve on Staff Council as a representative. The elections shall be conducted by secret ballot within a unit/division or online through the SCO. Qualifications for Staff Council Representatives are listed in the Staff Council Bylaws. At the request of their union, those staff who belong to UE Local 267 are not permitted to participate in Staff Council. Questions about qualifications or about anything to do with Council elections may be addressed to the Staff Council Office. UVM staff whose salaries are funded by grants - Beginning in FY 2011, funds will be available to reimburse grants up to 3.5% of a grant-funded employee's salary for time spent engaged in Staff Council activities. Responsibilities The SCO will review Appendix I, the list of Units/Divisions within the University of Vermont, with the Office of the President each January in preparation for Staff Council Representative Elections. This exercise is necessary to confirm the configuration of Units/Divisions as it relates to UVM s Organization Chart and Staff Council Representation. The SCO is responsible for updating Appendix I as needed, following the annual review with the Office of the President. The SCO will draft an election timeline for Staff Council representatives and officers for review by the Rules and Elections Committee and the Executive Committee at their respective February meetings. It is the responsibility of the SCO to notify each individual unit s Dean/Vice President of vacancies that occur. The SCO will also notify the full Council and specifically, those representatives whose units will be conducting elections. Notification - Staff Council Representative Elections Details of upcoming elections will be communicated by the Staff Council Office. Each unit/division is responsible for communicating the need for Staff Council representation and how an election will be conducted (i.e., the completion of nomination forms, the timeline, and the balloting process whether occurring online by SCO or within the unit/division). The unit/division election timeline will be agreed upon in cooperation with the SCO. March 1 st The SCO will request from Human Resource Services an employee census as of March 15th of permanent staff by unit/division, excluding those who belong to UE Local 267. The purpose of this census is to determine the number of representatives each unit/division shall elect, based on the number of eligible staff within that unit/division. March 30th The SCO will notify (by ) all units/divisions having elections and will provide each with a copy of their 3/15 employee census. The Council will be informed of the same at their April meeting. Sample letters to employees announcing this opportunity will be provided to the units/divisions as well. Approved by Staff Council August 3, 2010 Page 4
5 April 1st The SCO (via Staffline and the Staff Council web site) will publish a list of the units/divisions requiring elections due to ending terms or vacancies. - First week of April Supervisors are asked to extend an invitation to all staff (excluding members of UE Local 267) to be a candidate for Staff Council representative. - Second week of April Staff running for election must submit a Nomination Form. This application must be shared with both the employee s supervisor and the SCO at staff.council@uvm.edu. All nominee information received by only the SCO will be shared immediately with the employee s supervisor and unit contact. - Third week of April This is the unit/division supervisor s deadline for notifying the SCO how their elections will take place. The SCO will begin building ballots for online elections. In the event that only one (1) Nomination Form is received, then the supervisor may choose to accept and affirm the sole nomination and forego the election. - Fourth week of April The SCO will distribute online ballots by . At least five business days shall be allowed for each election (run by SCO or a Unit). April 30th All Staff Council representative elections conclude. On the first Monday in May All Staff Council candidates will be notified of election results.
