The stipend will be paid to the employee in the pay period following approval of the request. New employees will then be eligible for participation in the annual stipend program beginning September 1st after the probationary period has ended. If an exception to this rule is required, see the Safety Footwear Stipend Exception section below. 

Safety Footwear Stipend Exception (Existing Employees)

In the case where an employee and supervisor can verify that, through the course of normal work, additional safety footwear is required above the stipend amount, safety footwear will be purchased through Purchasing. This will be on a case-by-case basis and an exemption must be signed off by the division head (For example, the director of Facilities Services).

Once approved, the employee may select replacement safety footwear from a UO-approved vendor. A list of approved vendors may be accessed at the Purchasing and Contracting Services website. The employee must choose footwear that meets safety requirements and include all pertinent information in the purchase request; i.e. brand, size, part number, price, and will call receipt (if applicable).
