NEW TRAVEL POLICY AND MANUAL
Effective 03/01/2021, JSA has issued a revision to the Travel Policy located in Section 402 of the JSA Admin Manual. In addition, a new Travel Manual has been developed outlining the steps required for obtaining Travel Authorization and submitting Expense Reimbursement requests at Jefferson Lab. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the changes above. A Summary of Travel Changes page has also been developed outlining the major changes implemented with the most recent updates.
DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL UPDATE
Effective Mar. 2, vaccinated employees may resume both international and domestic travel, including conferences, when requested and approved following the Jefferson Lab Travel Policy. Foreign Travel Management System approval is still required for all foreign travel.
To protect the health of staff members who are not fully vaccinated, travel for those staff will only be authorized when critical to the Jefferson Lab mission. If an unvaccinated staff member requests to travel, they must describe in the TA why the mission objective cannot be achieved without their personal presence, and this must be confirmed and approved by the Division head before travel arrangements may be initiated.
