JHU HR Information Regarding Novel Coronavirus

Should I work from home?
Employees who are not required to work on-site should implement telework plans now to prevent or reduce the spread of infection. Managers should look to HR for guidance, as needed.

Managers should establish flexible work schedules for Required Attendance staff where possible to reduce the number of people working near one another on a given day. Implement social distancing practices meant to reduce close contact in the workplace (e.g., maintain a distance of 6 feet from others). Consider transitioning all meetings to phone or virtual formats.

How do I know if my job is classified as “Required Attendance” (essential staff)?
An employee who is considered Required Attendance staff (essential staff) will be designated in advance by their supervisor. This designation should be in writing, indicating that the employee provides critical services and should report to work, report to a designated alternate worksite or remain at work, even in the situation of a university closure. Refer to JHU Guidelines on Required Attendance for more details.

For Bargaining Unit employees represented by Local LIUNA #572, the university will follow the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement with respect to required attendance.

What do I do if I can’t work on-site, but my job can’t be done at home?
Any employee whose regular work can only be done on-site but is not critical in the present situation, should stay home in a paid, “on-call” posture, with the understanding that we may need to bring them back in or ask them to take on new or different duties as our response to the COVID-19 pandemic evolves.

It is not required that I do my job on-site at JHU, but I don’t want to work from home and/or I have employees on my team that I feel are more productive at the office. Can we work at JHU if we choose to?
No. If your job is not “Required Attendance” (essential staff), JHU is asking you to work from home to prevent or reduce the spread of infection. Managers should look to HR for guidance, as needed.

Should temporary employees (e.g., those working through Randstad) also work remotely?
Yes. Temporary employees should work remotely if their position can be successfully completed at home (Randstad will confirm with individual employees). If employees are able to work from home, they should email their supervisor at the beginning of their shift, at the end of their shift, and for any breaks longer than 30 minutes.

How will I get to work if public transportation is shut down and I have no other means of transportation?
Employees need to identify alternate measures and have a backup plan in place in the event of public transportation shutdown. Refer to Ready.gov for tips and information on how to prepare for a variety of situations.

How will my pay be affected if I am required to stay on the premises past my shift due to a shortage of employees?
Current pay practices and working guidelines are in effect for all JHU employees.

If I have been approved to work from home, how do I access JHU systems?
Please refer to the Remote Access Guidelines, provided by IT. Or, access the Support for Working From Home worksheet for other tips, links to training, and more.

What are the best practices for leading remote teams?
The Toolkit for Managing Remote Teams is a PPT deck that helps managers to develop a framework for a remote team. There are also newsletters for managers that offer tips and links to training. The first newsletter – Leaders at JHU: Managing Here, There, Anywhere – is available now. Additional newletters will be added as they are created. And you can always email the Learning team or the Organization Development and Effectiveness team for additional support.

If I am working from home, will I be reimbursed for expenses related to work?
It depends on the expense. Refer to the Home Office Reimbursement Guidelines for more information.

If my password expires, it’s very hard to reset it if I’m not at JHU.
Reset your password when you first receive the notification that it is about to expire. It is much easier to reset before the final expiration date.

How should I track my time in E210 while working remotely?
There are some new E210 codes to be used during this time. Review the Guidelines for Coding Time in E210 for details.

How will I get mail and/or packages if I am working from home?
The university is working on plans for mail and package services. More information will be posted to this site as plans are finalized.

I usually pick up my check. How will I get it if people aren’t working on-site at the university?
Payroll Shared Services is encouraging all employees to receive their pay via direct deposit or, if a check is necessary, by mail to their home address. Go to the HUB at Work article for more details and specific instructions.

I don’t have internet access at home.
Comcast is offering 2 free months of high-speed Internet Essentials service for households that qualify (low-income and/or new customers). If you do not qualify, the service is $9.95/month (not reimbursed by JHU). Go to the Comcast Internet Essentials site for more information and to sign up.

I need a software license in order to do my work from home. What do I do?
The process for requesting software has not changed. Funding for additional software will come from your department, so you should discuss your request with your supervisor. He or she will need to provide a Cost Center to complete the software order.

To place the order, go to the myJH.edu portal and click on the Service Now icon. That will take you to the IT Services Portal, where you will find the university software catalog.

What is happening with the JHU contribution to retirement plans?
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the university faces the prospect of large operating losses this fiscal year and next. Among the first set of steps the university has taken to address those potential projected shortfalls is a one-year suspension of university contributions to most retirement plans from July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021. Learn more about the details here.

What does my JHU health insurance cover?
The JHU health plan has waived copays and deductibles associated with testing for COVID-19. If you have additional benefits questions, contact the Benefits Service Center at 410-516-2000 or benefits@jhu.edu.

How are telehealth visits being covered?
All JHU medical plans will cover any telehealth visit at 100% with no cost to the patient. Your healthcare provider may submit claims under the telehealth code, and they will be covered for dates of service starting on February 4, 2020 and continuing for the duration of the public health crisis. You also have access to a telehealth app through the insurance provider. This allows you to receive care when you need it or if your routine provider is not available.

How do I access the telehealth apps?
Each health plan has access to a telehealth app that allows you to get the care you need, when and where you need it. You can talk with a doctor by video on your smartphone, tablet, or computer. You can see a provider online if you need treatment for a common condition such as a sinus infection or a sore throat. For mental health, diet/nutrition, or breastfeeding support, you can schedule a virtual visit and meet with a licensed professional from the comfort of your home.

• CareFirst Members: Download the CareFirst Video Visit app and enter your insurance information from your CareFirst card.
• EHP Members: EHP member may also use the CareFirst Video Visit by entering the coupon code: JHU-COVID19. The code is valid for all video visit services until June 30, 2020. When you reach the insurance information section during registration, select “other/my insurance is not listed.” Following that step, you will have the opportunity to enter the coupon code.
• Kaiser Members:  You must register with KP.org to get started using telehealth services.

What options do I have to refill my prescriptions?
We highly encourage switching to mail order for all maintenance medications. This program allows a full 90 days to be mailed directly to your home address with no need to leave the house. Click here for instructions on how to set up your mail order.

If you are covered by JHU health insurance, Express Scripts offers 1 additional emergency refill. This allows you to refill your prescription immediately after picking up a prior refill, and no special approval is necessary. You should advise your pharmacy that you are requesting an “Emergency Refill.”

Due to concerns around retail supply, this should only be used for emergencies and some pharmacies may be limiting quantities. Click here to visit Express Scripts’ COVID resource page.

I am currently enrolled in the Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account, but my childcare (or my child’s camp) has closed or has changed. Can I stop my deductions?
Yes, if you no longer are paying for care you may stop you current DCFSA deductions. Deductions may only be stopped prospectively, and you cannot revoke your full election.

To make a change to your election, log into the Benefits Enrollment Portal by clicking on myChoices Health and Life Enrollment from the main page of the Benefits site. From there, click on Start a Qualified Life Event – Family Changes. When your childcare needs return, you can restart the deductions through the portal.

For additional assistance or questions please reach out to the Benefits Service Center or call 410-516-2000 for assistance.

How do I cancel my pre-tax commuter benefits?
Commuter benefits can be canceled and restarted at any time throughout the year. To make changes to your commuter elections, log into the Benefits Enrollment Portal by clicking on myChoices Health and Life Enrollment from the main page of the Benefits site. From there, click on Start a Qualified Life Event – Commuter Changes.

Are EyeMed benefits available to members online?
Yes. EyeMed members have multiple options to order prescription eyewear and contact lenses online using their benefits. This may be an ideal solution to practice social distancing and mitigate outdoor risk. Online sites will require a valid prescription. Online, in-network options include: Glasses.com, ContactsDirect, Ray-Ban.com, LensCrafters.com, and TargetOptical.com. Under the current circumstances, many of these online providers are offering free, expedited shipping and no-cost returns for extra convenience. Members should check with the online providers to verify offers.

An EyeMed Member FAQ is also available. Questions can be directed to EyeMed’s Customer Care Center for JHU at 866-800-5457 or their general Customer Care Center at 1-866-933-3633.

Do I have to pay for parking fees that have been charged since April 1, when the COVID-19 crisis began?
No. JHU leadership has decided to refund monthly parking fees that were paid for the months of April, May, and June 2020 – regardless of whether the employee has been working on campus. In addition, no parking fees will be assessed for July 2020.

Will taxes be deducted from my refund?
It depends. Most employees had pre-tax deductions taken to pay for their on-campus parking, but there are some who may have paid for parking post-tax. See below for more details.

Employees with Pre-Tax Parking
For many employees, the payments for parking were made pre-tax, which reduced your taxable wages and means that federal and state taxes were not withheld on those earnings. The IRS considers the refunded payments to be wages. As such, the university is required by the IRS to withhold taxes on the refunded amounts. The cash you receive will equal the refund, less applicable federal and state taxes. For example, if you incurred $100 in pre-tax parking deductions, then the refunded cash amount may be around $60 ($100 minus $40 in applicable income taxes). It is important to remember that everyone’s tax situation varies. The amount of taxes withheld will depend on your individual tax situation. The additional wages and associated taxes will be included on your 2020 Form W-2.

Employees with Post-Tax Parking
Some employees may have paid for parking post-tax, which did not reduce their taxable wages. For those employees, the portion of parking that was paid with post-tax dollars will not be considered taxable income. The refunded cash amount will equal the total amount of post-tax parking payments for the refund period. For example, if you incurred $60 in post-tax parking deductions, then the refunded cash amount will be $60 (because no taxes are withheld).

Fellows
The university does not withhold taxes on fellowship payments to those individuals that are considered residents of the United States for income tax purposes, so there will not be a reduction for taxes on the refunded amounts. If the fellow is considered a non-resident for income tax purposes, fellowship payments are generally subject to withholding. Therefore, the cash you received as a result of the refund will equal the refund less applicable federal and state taxes.

I park in a non-Johns Hopkins lot. Will I get a refund for those charges also?
If your monthly parking charges are currently deducted from your paycheck and paid to the university, then you will receive a refund for those deductions. Employees who pay for parking independent from the university (including those employees who elected a pre-tax commuter plan through Discovery Benefits) should work directly with their parking provider to cancel their parking contracts, if desired, as those parking fees will not be refunded by the university.

What do I need to do to request a refund?
Nothing. If you have paid monthly parking fees for April, May, or June 2020, they will be refunded on your mid-July paycheck (similar to the parking deduction, except the money will come to you).

When will parking fees begin again?
If you are currently in the parking program and do not cancel parking (see the next question), fees will begin automatically starting on August 1^st. You will see the parking fee deducted from your August paychecks, as usual.

What if I don’t want to restart my parking privileges?
You have the option of cancelling your parking if you are working from home (or for any other reason) at any time. To ensure that the August parking fee is not deducted from your check, you must complete the Parking Cancellation Request Form before July 15, 2020. If you miss the July 15 deadline to stop August parking charges from being deducted, you may still cancel later at any time thereafter for future months.

Is there a guarantee that I will get my parking spot back if I cancel?
Each parking office will make every effort to reinstate parking at the same location if parking is resumed before October 1, 2020. If you choose to cancel your parking beyond October 1, it is possible that your space will be offered to employees on the waiting list.

If I cancel my parking, how do I restart my parking privileges later?
You should contact your normal parking office or division (refer to the list of parking contacts). You should alert the parking office at least two weeks before you want your parking to start again (or come to the parking office to pay for your first month of parking with a check).

Do I need to turn in my parking pass if I cancel?
If you have a parking hangtag and you cancel your parking permit, you are expected to return the hangtag before the cancellation can be processed. Hangtags can be sent to 3400 N. Charles St, Baltimore, MD, 21218, with an attention to Transportation Services Office.

I don’t know when I will be returning to campus, which impacts whether I want to keep my parking. What should I do?
The resumption of on-campus activities is still in the planning phases. Although there is no definite plan, employees who are in non-clinical, non-research, and not student-facing roles will likely be asked to continue working remotely for several more months. The HUB COVID-19 Information site is the best place to look for up-to-date information regarding plans for returning to campus.

Why is the JHU parking refund plan different than the JHHS plan?
The majority of JHU employees were asked to work from home immediately when the COVID-19 crisis began, and many have been paying for parking while not using the spaces that they reserved on campus. Conversely, the majority of JHHS employees have continued to report to the workplace and are actively using their parking spaces.

Who do I contact if I have questions?
Contact the main JHU Parking Office at Parking@JHU.edu.

COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund:

Who is eligible to apply for COVID-19 Emergency Relief Funds?
Only the following individuals are eligible:

• Full-time, benefits eligible, JHU employees earning $50,000 or less, with 1 year of continuous employment.
• Third-party full-time contract employees working at JHU and earning $50,000 or less, with 1 year of continuous employment.

What is the amount of the Emergency Relief Fund (ERF) benefit?
Only qualifying and substantiated expenses will be reimbursed under the ERF. A list of eligible expenses is provided below. At this time, the maximum amount available per employee or contractor is $1,000. Funds will be available on a first come, first served basis.

How do I apply for an ERF benefit?
The funding is being distributed on a first come, first served basis. To begin the application process, please log into the Benefits portal by clicking on myChoices Health and Life Enrollment, and then “View My Benefits” from the Benefits and Worklife Website. If you are eligible, you will see a link to the application on your home page.

What type of expenses are covered under the ERF?
All eligible expenses must be incurred after March 13, 2020 and must be reasonable and necessary personal, family, living, or funeral expenses and must be incurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Examples of such expenses include:

• Expenses related to a death in the immediate family if COVID-19 related
• Out of pocket medical expenses (including mental health and wellness) not covered by health insurance if COVID-19 related
• Childcare and/or tutoring expenses due to school closings
• Elder care support if COVID related
• Support of dependent education during the COVID-19 crisis for grades K-12 (e.g. additional hardware or internet costs)
• Additional transportation expenses (e.g. work relocation, change in mode of transportation to avoid public transit, etc.)
• Transportation and living expenses for college students returning early.

If you receive a reimbursement in error, for reasons including, but not limited to, reimbursement of ineligible expenses, then it is your obligation to promptly repay any such monies, after notification by the university.

 What type of expenses are NOT covered?
The following expenses are not covered:

• Expenses incurred prior to March 13, 2020.
• Expenses that are not reasonable and necessary.
• Expenses that constitute an income replacement (e.g. payments for lost wages, lost business income, or unemployment compensation) or are reimbursable by insurance or other sources (including other employer sources).
• Groceries and meal delivery services.
• Home office equipment and supplies.
• Non-essential, luxury, or decorative items or services.
• Expenses not incurred as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Undocumented expenses and other expenses not permitted under the law.

Could an ERF payment be provided for an expected future expense which, if incurred, would qualify as a covered expense?
No, this program will only cover expenses that have actually been incurred.

Will rent or mortgage payments be covered?
Regular rent/mortgage is not covered. However, reasonable and necessary temporary housing costs attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic may be covered.

Are medical expenses covered under this program?
Yes, unreimbursed medical expenses attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic are covered under the ERF program. This includes your medical deductible, co-insurance, and hospital copays as long as  the costs are related to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Medical premiums or medical expenses covered by insurance are not eligible.

Are increased health premiums (due to loss of employer contribution upon reduction in hours or termination of employment) a covered expense?
No, under the tax code (section 139 of the Internal Revenue Code), covering those costs could be seen as a wage replacement, and not directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

How do I submit my expenses and get reimbursed?
Once your application has been approved, reimbursement will be administered by Discovery Benefits, our Flexible Spending Account vendor. To start the reimbursement process you will need to log into your account at https://www.discoverybenefits.com/.  If you are new to Discovery Benefits, you will need to create a username and password. Once logged in, you will follow the steps to file for reimbursement (under “Disaster Relief Fund”).  You will be required to upload proper documentation such as an itemized receipt or Explanation of Benefits from the insurance company. Once approved, Discovery Benefits will reimburse you via direct deposit or by mailing a check to your home address.  If you do not already have direct deposit with Discovery Benefits, you should complete this first, as it is the quickest way to be reimbursed. Claims will be reimbursed in 2-3 business days after the completed reimbursement request is submitted.

Who do I contact with questions about this program?
Contact the Benefits Service Center at 410-516-2000 or benefits@jhu.edu.

Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act:

I need to withdraw money from my 403(b) retirement account to cover expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Am I eligible?
Under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) an employee may qualify and be eligible for a coronavirus-related distribution, if they meet one of the criteria below and self-certify through their investment provider.

• You, your spouse, or dependent was diagnosed with coronavirus;
• You have experienced adverse financial consequences as a result of being quarantined, furloughed or laid off, or your work hours have been reduced;
• You are unable to work because of a lack of child care;
• You have had to close or reduce the hours of a business as a result of the virus; or
• You have been financially impacted by other factors determined by the US Secretary of Treasury.

Is there a cap on how much I can withdraw?
Yes.  During 2020, you may withdraw up to a total of $100,000 in coronavirus-related distributions from your employee contributions or any rollover funds in the JHU 403(b) plan.  The university’s 457(b) plan is not eligible under the coronavirus-related withdrawal rules.

Will I have to pay an early withdrawal penalty if I take a coronavirus-related distribution?
No.  Under the CARES Act, the 10-percent tax penalty that generally applies to early withdrawals from a retirement account if you are younger that 591/2  is waived for coronavirus-related withdrawals taken between January 1 and December 31, 2020.

Do I have to pay tax on these distributions?
Yes.  However, the tax associated with the distributions may be paid ratably over three years, beginning with taxable year 2020.  The CARES Act also allows you to recontribute the funds you withdrew back into your retirement account without interest in one or more payments within three years. The recontributed amounts will not count toward the annual contribution limit in the year that the funds are returned to your 403(b).

Are there any changes regarding loans from retirement plans?
Yes.  The amount you can borrow from your 403(b) plan increased from $50,000 to $100,000 or 100% (at Fidelity only) of your employee contributions and any rollover funds, whichever is less.  The increased loan limit is only available from March 27, 2020 through September 22, 2020.  Loans may be obtained through your retirement accounts with Fidelity and TIAA, if applicable.

If you already have an outstanding loan, all loan payments due between March 27, 2020 through December 31, 2020 can be deferred for up to one year, but interest will continue to accrue and the loan will be re-amortized when the loan repayments restart in 2021.  This means your loan repayment amount will increase when repayments start again.

How do I initiate a coronavirus distribution or loan payment suspension?  
A CARES Act distribution or loan payment suspension is initiated by contacting your 403(b) investment provider directly.  Completed forms (including notarized spousal signature) are to be emailed to the Benefits Service Center at benefits@jhu.edu for plan sponsor signature.  The Benefits Service Center will forward the approved request to the investment provider for processing.

Other Financial Resources:

Is there a food distribution program available to aid employees affected by the COVID-19 pandemic?

To support employees and their families during the COVID-19 pandemic, Johns Hopkins has launched the Food for Hopkins program, which offers two to three weekly pickups of critical food supplies at both Johns Hopkins Hospital and Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center.

Any university employee can visit the hospital’s Armstrong Medical Education Building at 1600 McElderry St. on Mondays and Wednesdays for a breakfast bag and a lunch/dinner bag—enough food to feed a family of four for a day. Pickups are from 7:30 to 11:30 a.m. on Mondays and from 3 to 7 p.m. on Wednesdays. At Bayview, employees should go to the Asthma and Allergy Center at 5501 Hopkins Bayview Circle, on Tuesdays from 3 to 7 p.m. and Fridays from 7:30 to 11:30 a.m.

What happens if someone in my department is diagnosed with COVID-19? Will I be told?
Except in narrow circumstances in the health care setting, the identity of an employee who is diagnosed with COVID-19 will not be disclosed when informing staff or others who may have been exposed to the employee. JHU will continue our standard practice, which is to notify those who may have been exposed in a more generic fashion without disclosing the name of the employee.

Is there any additional guidance for JHU employees who are age 60 and over?
Older workers are at higher risk and should take precautions, including handwashing, avoiding high-touch surfaces in public places, avoiding touching your face, nose, and eyes, avoiding crowds, and avoiding all non-essential travel.

General Employment Actions FAQs

Why is JHU considering putting employees on furlough and or reduction in force?
Due to the economic and operational impact of COVID-19 (coronavirus), Johns Hopkins University is implementing these measures to ensure the financial stability of our organization.

What does furlough mean?
A Furlough is a temporary alteration in a staff member’s work schedule, with accompanying reduction in pay. A Furlough does not constitute a termination of employment. There are two types of work schedule alterations that may constitute a Furlough:

• • Furlough: Reduced Hours/Schedule. A reduction in daily or weekly hours, or an unpaid scheduled day off on a regular basis, during which an employee is off work and unpaid. Reductions to the hours for non-exempt employees will be in daily increments. Reductions to the schedule for exempt employees may be in daily or weekly increments, subject to certain limitations so that salary does not vary week to week. A Furlough: Reduced Hours/Schedule does not constitute a termination of employment.
  • Furlough: Temporary Layoff: A temporary period, minimum two consecutive work weeks, during which an employee is off work and unpaid (e.g., an unpaid period of weeks or months). A Furlough: Temporary Layoff does not constitute a termination of employment and may be treated similar to an Unpaid Leave of Absence under JHU’s existing HR policies.

Furloughed employees retain their positions, but during the unpaid hours or days, the employee ceases all work for the university. During the Furlough period, the employee maintains a JHED ID and access to email, Success Factors, training resources and Employee Self-Service (ESS). Access to other systems may be limited during this period. Employees should not work while on Furlough, which includes reading email and taking phone calls. Furloughed employees will receive a notification when the division/department determines that the employee can return to work.

How long will my Furlough last?
The Furlough period will vary depending upon the operational and financial situation of each division/department. When employees are placed on Furlough, they will be provided an estimate of the anticipated length of the Furlough, but this may be extended due to business need. JHU cannot predict when circumstances will sufficiently change so that the need for Furloughs will be reduced or eliminated.

Why was I selected for Furlough? What were the criteria?
Each division/department reviewed the workload of their organization and the impact that COVID-19 has had upon operations. The divisions/departments then made determinations regarding appropriate staffing levels in order to support the current state of business operations.

Are other divisions putting staff on Furlough?

Each division/department is making their own operational decisions regarding appropriate use of furlough’s based upon their specific circumstances. Furlough decisions can impact both exempt and non-exempt staff.

Are faculty being put on Furlough?
Any employment actions impacting faculty are managed at the divisional level by the Deans and DBOs.

FAQs for Furlough: Reduced Hours/Schedule

The Q&As below apply only to those employees who are placed on Furlough: Reduced Hours/Schedule.

What will happen to my medical/dental/vision insurance? Am I still covered?
Yes, staff who are furloughed and who elected coverage under the university’s benefit plans for calendar year 2020 during open enrollment in fall 2019 will still have the same benefits without interruption. Benefit deductions will continue to be taken from your pay, as usual.

Do I still retain all my other benefits while on furlough?
While on Furlough: Reduced Hours/Schedule, employees keep their full benefits. Leave continues to accrue, but at a rate consistent with hours worked (including hours coded as vacation time).

Can I use my vacation or sick leave so that I can continue to be paid?
Employees may elect to use accrued vacation to bridge their pay and offset the days that they are told not to work. Employees are not permitted to go negative on vacation balance. Employees may not use sick leave because the reason for the absence from work is not due to sickness.

Can I use floating holidays to cover some of my pay?
Yes, floating holidays can be used just like vacation to bridge your pay while on a reduced schedule furlough.

Can I donate vacation leave to someone else?
JHU does not permit vacation leave to be donated by one employee to another.

Will I continue to accrue vacation and sick leave at my normal rate?
Yes, leave continues to accrue, but at a rate consistent with hours worked (including hours coded as vacation time).

What about my salary deductions for the 403(b) retirement plan?
Employee contributions to the 403(b) plan are based upon pay received (including hours coded as vacation time).

Who do I contact if I have questions about my benefits?
See the Furlough: Reduced Schedule Benefits Summary. For additional assistance or questions please reach out to the Benefits Service Center or call 410-516-2000 for assistance.

Can I file for unemployment insurance benefits?

No, Furlough will not affect your years of service or retirement at Johns Hopkins.

Will reduced hours affect my access to university tuition benefit plans?

Is it possible that even after the Furlough my position could still be eliminated?
The university will continue to closely monitor operations and staffing levels, and will make decisions based upon business impacts. If the ultimate decision is made to eliminate your position, you would receive a severance package, benefits support, and outplacement support.

What recourse do I have regarding the Furlough decision?
All Furlough decisions are being made after careful consideration of many alternatives. This action has been taken after all possibilities were exhausted, and it has been reviewed by the most senior JHU leadership.

Can I look for a job while I am on Furlough?

FAQs for Furlough: Temporary Layoff

The Q&As below apply only to those employees who are placed on Furlough: Temporary Layoff

What will happen to my medical/dental/vision insurance? Am I still covered?
Yes, staff who are placed on Furlough and who elected coverage under the university’s benefit plans for calendar year for calendar year 2020 during open enrollment in fall 2019 will still have the same benefits without interruption. If necessary, impacted employees will be direct billed (by a 3^rd party) for their contributions to these benefit plans.

Do I still retain all my other benefits while on Furlough?
While on Furlough: Temporary Layoff status, employees keep their full benefits, but do not continue to accrue leave.

Can I use my vacation or sick leave so that I can continue to be paid?
Employees placed on Furlough: Temporary Layoff have the option of using accrued vacation leave, as described below. Employees may not use sick leave because the reason for the absence from work is not due to sickness.

Employees must choose one of the three options listed below within 7 calendar days of notification.

1. 1. Do not use your vacation time. Employees electing this option will receive no pay starting on the first day of the Furlough. Their vacation balance will remain intact and will be available when they return to work.
   2. Use half of your vacation balance. JHU will make a one-time lump sum payment equal to half of the accrued vacation balance (up to half of the vacation limit). Upon return to work, the accrued vacation balance will have been reduced accordingly.
   3. Use all of your vacation balance. JHU will make a one-time lump sum payment equal to the value of the entire accrued vacation balance (up to the vacation limit). Upon return to work, the accrued vacation balance will have been reduced accordingly.

Please note that employees placed on Furlough: Temporary Layoff are typically eligible for unemployment if they do not elect the vacation payout, depending on state rules.

The state alone determines eligibility for unemployment insurance.

Who do I contact if I have questions about my benefits while on furlough?
See the Furlough: Temporary Layoff Benefits Summary. For additional assistance or questions please reach out to the Benefits Service Center or call 410-516-2000 for assistance.

Will the furlough affect my tuition assistance benefits?
No, a furlough will not affect tuition assistance benefits.
