That's Impressive...
We have definitely kept our Accounts Payable Department exceptionally busy this past fiscal year. Can you believe they processed a total of 19,182 invoices? That's over 1,600 more invoices than last fiscal year. Way to go AP!

Have you heard the buzz... This past May, the US Department of Labor issued some changes in the overtime rule. The salary threshold for white collar exemptions from overtime was increased from $23,660 to $47,476. So what does this mean for the University? While a large portion of our employees will remain exempt under the teacher exemption rules, beginning November 1, 2016, those employees earning below the new salary threshold will likely become hourly and eligible for overtime pay. If you are one of these employees, we encourage you to attend one of our weekly training sessions as there are some unique characteristics that everyone at ASU should be made aware.

Danke schön... Environmental Health, Safety, and Risk Management would like to send a huge Thank You to all who have renewed their driver authorizations. If you're unsure of who has been approved in your department, please take a minute to review the Approved Driver List. Any drivers you feel should be on the list who are not will need to complete a Driver Approval Request Form; and if driving carts or vans will also need to complete those trainings, which are coordinated through the EHSRM Office.

It's a Blue and Gold Metamorphosis... If you haven't noticed, our Facilities Management folks have been very busy upgrading our campus this summer. From the ASU Spirit Banners on the buildings, to the blue and gold classrooms, to the refreshing facelift of our campus landscaping. Pictured above is our most recent transformation of the fountain area that once surrounded ASU's Ram and Ewe statues in front of the Junell Center. So, if you haven't had an opportunity to see these enhancements, then you should definitely take a stroll around campus before it gets "too cold".
