| Restrictions for Accessing HR Central Off-Campus or from Wireless Devices |
Human Resources Central allows access to a great deal of confidential and protected information under State of North Carolina law. To comply with these laws and to protect our employee’s information from unauthorized access and identify theft, we have taken extra steps to secure physical access to Human Resources Central. Access to the system is blocked from workstations that are not physically connected to the UNC-Chapel Hill campus network or wireless devices including wireless equipped laptops, whether on- or off-campus. You must use a workstation that is physically connected to the campus network (e.g., connected by wire to a network jack on your office wall) to access Human Resources Central. Access from off-campus locations or personal residences, directly or via a connection to an on-campus workstation, is strictly prohibited except under highly unusual circumstances and then only with special approvals. Any requests for special arrangements should be directed to the Director of HRIS Support. Special requests for at-home access must be made under the signature of the senior administrative official of the School, College, or Division from which the request is made (e.g. Dean, Assistant Dean for Administration, Associate Vice Chancellor, etc.). Campus units/departments with off-campus University owned or leased space that is not directly connected to the campus network are permitted access and special technical arrangements can be made by contacting the Director of HRIS Support.
*Attempts to access Human Resources Central from any off-campus location, except in the circumstances described above, will be considered a violation of University policy and may result in a suspension of all Human Resources Central access privileges and appropriate disciplinary action. Please address any questions regarding this policy to the Director, HRIS Support Department.*
