The Hiring Process and EPAFs

What is an EPAF? (Electronic Personnel Action Form)

The EPAF project has taken a paper-driven hiring process to an electronic process. Originators activate jobs which travel through an approval process. At any point in the approval process it is possible to check the status of a job. This documentation is intended to make the process easier. For further assistance please call the Office of Human Resources at x 5470.

The EPAF Process

1. Log into Banner Web for Employees using your windows username and password.

2. Click on the Employee tab, then EPAF Administrator, then New EPAF.

3. This will open the EPAF form. You can hire a department funded, federally funded, research funded or restricted funded student worker using this system. You can also change status and terminate an employee's job.

Please contact the Office of Human Resources if you have any questions or wish to attend a training classs. Detailed instructions and a user guide can be found below.
