Impacts to Consider When Your Position or FTE Changes

If you’re anticipating a change in your job, whether it’s a reduction in FTE, a change in your appointment term (such as moving from 12-month to 9-month), or simply want to understand how these changes might impact your benefits, we’ve compiled helpful information for you on the Benefit Implications Due to Change in Appointment page.

Additionally, some employees may experience position discontinuation or layoffs over the summer. If this applies to you, please review the available benefit-related guidance to help you navigate the transition.

You may also be considering options like the Phased Retirement plan. If so, resources are available to help you determine whether it could be a good fit for your situation.

If you have questions that aren’t addressed on the websites, please don’t hesitate to reach out to HRS Benefits at hrs.benefits@wsu.edu or 509-335-4589. We’re here to support you.
