Faculty & Staff Handbook
This Faculty & Staff Handbook contains information about policies and procedures at OSU Mansfield. The documents in the Handbook are arranged by topic. In addition, every form is listed under the heading "Forms."
The Handbook does not contain office numbers, phone numbers, or names of faculty or staff; consult the current Directory for that information. For other helpful links, including links to university-wide resources, go to the Faculty & Staff section of the campus webpage.
For further information about a particular document in the handbook, refer to the individual or committee named at the bottom of the document. This person or committee is responsible for keeping the document current. If you are in charge of a document and want to post a revised version, send the document to the campus webmaster.
All policies and procedures contained within the Handbook must comply with the laws of the State of Ohio and University policy. Should there be a conflict, the former will always prevail.
