CSU Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)

September 15, 2021 Code: HR 2021-04

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a large portion of the California State University’s workforce began telecommuting in March 2020. The prolonged nature of the pandemic resulted in many employees deciding to telecommute from outside of California. Unfortunately, out-of-state employment poses significant challenges for the California State University.

This coded memorandum serves as notification that hiring employees to perform CSU-related work outside of California will be prohibited as of January 1, 2022, the intended effective date of the Out-of-State Employment Policy. Labor unions have been notified of the CSU’s intention to implement this new policy and we are in the process of scheduling meeting dates. Attachment A includes a copy of the drafted Out-of-State Employment Policy.

A technical letter with details and instructions for your respective campus constituents responsible for administering this policy will be forthcoming.
