Employee Relations Spelman believes that the work conditions, wages, and benefits it offers to its employees are competitive with those offered by other employers in this region and in higher education. If employees have concerns about work conditions, they are strongly encouraged to voice these concerns openly and directly to their supervisors. Our experience has shown that when employees deal openly and directly with supervisors, the work environment can be excellent, communications can be clear, and attitudes can be positive. We believe that Spelman amply demonstrates its commitment to employees by responding effectively to employee concerns. If conditions exist that prevent you from having open discussions with your immediate supervisor, you should contact the next level of management or the Office of Human Resources.
