As the University plans the return to full operations, we want to remind everyone that all non-essential travel for faculty, staff, and students continues to be prohibited. A waiver process is, and will remain, in place for travel to be reviewed and approved. Any traveler who needs approval for domestic or international travel should contact Wade Bond in Risk Management (wbond@fa.ua.edu) and request assistance in starting the approval process. Frequent local travel that does not require an overnight stay is allowable if the following conditions are met: (1) This travel is part of the employee’s day to day duties, (2) this travel is essential, (3) the supervisor is in agreement that the travel is essential, AND (4) no overnight stay is required. Any overnight travel that is submitted to Accounts Payable for processing will be reviewed to ensure that an approved waiver is attached. If the travel has not been approved, the Expense Report or Concur Invoice will not be processed.
