Process for Appointing Postdocs with Dual Appointments - Forms - Postdoctoral Affairs - Graduate Education - Education - University of Rochester Medical Center

In order to ensure that Postdoctoral Appointees are taxed appropriately, it will be necessary at times to create dual appointments for postdocs supported by different types of funding dollars. In such cases, the benefits will follow the primary appointment, with primary appointment defined as the percentage of effort (funding) greater than 50%. Thus, Postdoctoral Appointees are not permitted a 50/50 split between funding types. The process to appoint such postdocs is outlined below:

1. Hire in myURHR with the primary appointment. The total base pay equates to the annual salary covered by the primary funding. 

2. ‘Add Job’ for the secondary appointment. The secondary appointment should be Time as Reported (TAR). The total base pay equates to the annual salary covered by the secondary funding.

3. All supporting documents from the Postdoctoral Checklist are to be emailed to GEPA_PAF.

*Please note that this includes externally funded postdocs. In cases where the external funding is the greater source of funding, the primary appointment will be the 0094 no-pay appointment.
