Family-friendly Policies

The College of Liberal Arts at Texas A&M University is committed to providing an inclusive and family-friendly workplace environment for faculty and staff. When the personal and professional lives of faculty and staff are impacted by events such as the birth of a child, personal illness or injury, or the illness of a parent or close relative, the College will assist the employee to the extent permitted by University policy and state law. Below are links to websites and documents that provide information on pertinent University rules, benefits, and resources. Employees are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the information provided at these sites, and should not hesitate to request the assistance and benefits for which they are eligible. Normally, requests for assistance would be made to the department head.
