COVID-19 Employee Resources

COVID-19 Employee Resource Page

We are thankful to have a supportive community of students, faculty and staff who have come together and quickly adapted to working remotely under these challenging and uncertain circumstances.

Effective Sunday March 22, 2020, in compliance with the New York State Regulations, no one will be allowed on campus with the exception of a very small number of individuals who have been designated as performing essential functions at this time. This means that if you are a student, faculty member or non-essential employee, you may not return to campus until further notice. We have provided you with important information to assist you while you work remotely.

Please remain vigilant and take care of yourselves and your loved ones. We will get through this together.

  1. Sign up for TC Alerts and visit the TC Preparedness Website to stay up to date with TC’s response to COVID-19.
  2. Sign up for Direct Deposit
    • If you haven't already, sign up for direct deposit of your paycheck via myTC.
    • Effective for the March 27, 2020 pay period, paper checks will be sent via US Postal Service (USPS) to the W-2 address on file. You can update your W-2 address via myTC.
  3. Update your Emergency Contacts on myTC.
    • We encourage all employees to ensure your emergency contact information is up-to-date. This information is accessible only by the Office of Human Resources. Additionally, given our current situation, we recommend employees share at least one emergency contact with your supervisor in the event a situation arises and your HR representative is unavailable to share this information.
