The Office of Policies, Records, and Forms has started the process of gradually combining the Executive Policy Manual (EPM), Business Policies and Procedures Manual (BPPM), and Safety Policies and Procedures Manual (SPPM) into one administrative manual to eventually be named the University Policies and Procedures Manual (UPPM).
These three policy manuals hold equal authority, and revisions to all three manuals are reviewed by university executive administrators and approved by the president.
Our goal in combining the manuals is to:
- Improve clarity and consistency;
- Streamline access and usability; and
- Avoid redundancy in policies.
For policy owners, this is an opportunity to review your policies and ensure they are up-to-date and accurate. We will notify and consult with you if a policy within your purview will be relocated.
Please contact the Office of Policies, Records, and Forms for more information at policies@wsu.edu. We are happy to share our progress and answer your questions on this important project.
