  • AEA 267 raises $1,450 to benefit area food banks

  • Time to remove AEA 267 “Top Workplaces” logo from signature

    Do you still have a 2015 “Top Workplaces” logo in your email signature? If so, just a friendly reminder that it’s probably time to remove it given that the award is now two years old. Need help? Please contact someone in Information Technology or refer back to the original instructions shared in the September 2015 edition of Intersections for accessing your email signature. Instead of adding a logo, you are simply deleting.

  • Business Office shares updates to Time Clock Regulations

    There have been minor revisions made to the Time Clock Regulations, which can be accessed in the portal at My Toolbox > TimeClock Resources > Regulations.  The main change is that once leaves are posted by Human Resources, they are now automatically transferred to the Time Clock system.  This will allow staff to view total hours in Time Clock Plus on a daily basis. Time Clock staff are encouraged to check their hours on a regular basis in order to minimize problems later.

  • W-2 statements to be mailed later this month

    The Business Office will be mailing W2 and 1095-C tax information to all employee’s homes toward the end of the month. Please verify your address information in the iVisions portal under My Personal Information > Contact Information. The forms will also be available through the iVisions portal under the My Compensation menu item. The 1095-C is a tax form that reflects yearly insurance coverage. It is required as a part of the Affordable Care Act. Please save and share with your tax preparer.
