Explanation
ePAR
Most personnel actions can be initiated using the electronic Personnel Action Request (ePAR) process. ePARs are electronic forms that facilitate the request and approval of common personnel actions such as hiring, transfers, funding updates, and terminations. More information on ePAR can be found here.
ePAR Actions can be initiated via the Galaxy portal, through Gemini > Personnel Info/Actions > ePAR Actions.
ePUR
The electronic Position Update / Request (ePUR) process is used to process vacant position updates or request new positions. The ePUR form can be accessed via the Galaxy portal, through Gemini > Personnel Info/Actions > ePUR Position Update/Request.
