On Campus and Remote Positions

Considerations for determining if a position should be primarily on-campus and/or primarily remote.

Primarily On-Campus:

  • The position needs to have face-to-face contact with staff, faculty, students, community members or the public.
  • The position needs to work with equipment, materials, files or data that can only be physically accessed and used on the Brandeis campus.
  • The position supervises others who work primarily on-campus.
  • The position requires regular on-campus collaboration and/or interactions with other staff or managers to fulfill department operations.
  • The position has other non-transferable duties that can only be fulfilled while working on-campus.
Primarily Remote:
  • The on-campus factors above do not apply.
  • The primary duties of the position can be fulfilled remotely.
  • The employee can effectively perform most tasks without in-person supervision.
  • The employee has not experienced performance issues working remotely.
If you have any questions on department staffing support, please consult with your Dean, Vice President or manager. Please contact Human Resources for guidance or clarification.
