Year of Employment

A Year of Employment is relevant in determining when you are eligible to participate in CRP if (i) you are a member of the faculty or an academic employee, an officer of the University, or a Librarian appointed to half-time service or a Laboratory School Teacher appointed to full-time service and (ii) immediately prior to your appointment, you are actively participating in ERIP. In such case, you are eligible to participate in CRP after completing a Year of Employment.

A Year of Employment means a 12-consecutive month period following your appointment. Unlike a Year of Service, only your employment in a CRP-eligible position counts toward a Year of Employment. In addition, your CRP-eligible employment must be continuous. That is, if you terminate employment with the University or transfer to a non-CRP-eligible position and are rehired in or transferred back to a CRP-eligible position, your prior CRP-eligible employment does not count toward a Year of Employment.
