HR Policies
All University Policy and Procedure Statements (UPPS) are intended to provide information and guidance associated with employment at Texas State University. We encourage employees to read and become familiar with the policies of the university, as well as their respective departments. The content of UPPS’s are subject to change at any time at the sole discretion of the university.

Any questions regarding the content of each UPPS should be addressed through your supervisor or Human Resources.
