Benefits Information for New Staff
The benefits presentation at New Staff Orientation (NSO) provides an overview of core and voluntary benefits available at Vanderbilt. Tuition benefits are covered in brief. The Office of Benefits Administration does not include information on leave accruals. The hiring manager should explain vacation, personal and sick time to new staff as soon as possible. (If needed, refer to the HR Policies Web page for more information.)
