Employees are expected to manage their personal
financial affairs in a manner which prevents involving
Eastern Michigan University in legal proceeding
and unnecessary expense through garnishments, tax
levies and other collection devices.
Although the circumstances will be considered on
an individual basis, three or more garnishments,
tax levies or combination of same are considered
cause for termination of employment.
The receipt of three or more garnishments may be
considered as sufficient cause for termination of
employment with the provision that each case will
be considered individually. The administrative procedures
will be as follows:
First Garnishment: A conference with the
personnel director at which time the employee will
be told of its seriousness. Financial counseling
will be recommended.
Second Garnishment: The action of the
first garnishment will be repeated and inquiry made
as to the employee’s
intention of debt consolidation.
Third Garnishment: If the employee has
taken steps toward eliminating the problem, he or
she may be given further consideration. If the employee
has not taken steps to eliminate the problem, the
employee may be given a two weeks notice of termination
of employment.
