Eligible UB employees can now enroll in the Productivity Enhancement Program (PEP) for 2016, which allows employees to exchange previously accrued vacation and/or personal leave for a credit to be applied toward the employee share of their New York State Health Insurance Program premiums on a biweekly basis.

International students make up a significant percentage of the UB student population.

UB staff members can join their colleagues for some light fall refreshment and fellowship this week at two events sponsored by the Professional Staff Senate’s Social Committee.
