UIS is committed to protecting minors who visit campus so they can enjoy the wonderful events and programs our community offers. For departments that want to offer programs to minors (persons under the age of eighteen (18)), our Protection of Minors page has detailed information on planning and hosting an event for young visitors.

In August's HR newsletter, we talk about the next session in the Employee Development Series. We remind readers of the Protection of Minors policy, Remote Work Agreements, Employment Verification, and Workers' Compensation Reporting. We also talk about a couple of upcoming events!
