Employee Departure
When an employee leaves OHIO, there are several de-provisioning steps required to ensure the security of the institution's data and the departing employee.
Employee Departure Checklist for Management
- Plan ahead! If an employee is expected to depart, have them gather all files the business unit will need to continue operations before the departure date.
- Too late? If the employee has already left, special circumstances allow managers to fill out an Access to IT Resources form. This form must be submitted to University Human Resources (UHR) for approval. Once the request is approved, UHR will send the request to the Information Security Office for processing.
- Personal files. Ensure the employee has retrieved all personal files off their work computer. Keep in Mind - Current and departing employees are not permitted to remove university data.
- Set an Auto-Reply. If an employee worked as a central point of contact for the office, it is important to have an auto-reply set on their account. In order to set an auto-reply, fill out an Access to IT Resources form and submit it to UHR. UHR will send the form to the Information Security Office for processing.
Checklist for Departing Employee
