Framework and Support for Employee Flexibility and Campus Vitality at NYU


A Framework for Hybrid/Remote Work for Employees

Managing in NYU's Model of People and Places

The roles of the administrators and staff (Local 3882 and Local 153) you supervise are categorized in a framework based on their specific job function and the degree of in-person interaction. Complemented and underscored by flexibility, our three work models – Fully On-Site, Hybrid Eligible, and Mostly Remote – reflect how NYU New York, as a preeminent research and academic institution, is in large part a location-based organization, with many core services and activities offered or performed in-person. A flexible framework provides a vibrant and authentic campus experience for those who study, learn, teach, research, and work here.

Hybrid Eligible

Employees whose roles are classified as Hybrid Eligible are on campus 40% to 80% of the time and have an assigned workspace. The number of days on campus per week may be at the discretion of the school, unit, or area lead based on the work, needs, and role.

Mostly Remote

Employees whose roles are classified as Mostly Remote maintain an occasional presence on campus; they are remote 80% or more of the time and have no dedicated desk. Supervisors consider and submit an individual role request, which requires approval by University Human Resources.
