NEW CELL PHONE ALLOWANCE POLICY
Effective July 1, the university will implement a new Cell Phone Allowance Policy to comply with IRS regulations. It will take the place of the existing Cell Phone Use and Reimbursement Policy and establishes guidelines for the distribution of an allowance paid to employees for the business portion of personal cell phones. With appropriate need, departmental and senior officer approval, allowances for cell phone service will be added to employees' pay. See the Cell Phone Allowance Policy website for more information - http://www.controller.cmich.edu/travel/cell_phone.htm. A Q & A page to help answer questions can be viewed at www.controller.cmich.edu/travel/cell_phone_QA.htm.
