Jackson State University believes that a thorough orientation of new employees results in positive integration into the University's operation and will lead to a more productive and satisfying employment relationship. For this reason, new employees should report to the Division of Human Resources promptly on their report date to receive information about the University's history, opportunities for advancement, probation period, evaluations, benefit provisions, and to complete payroll documentation. The Division of Human Resources will notify the new employee about his or her required attendance at orientation sessions.
