MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF JUDGE

Welcome, It is my pleasure to welcome you to the New York State Unified Court System. This handbook will help you understand your role in the courts and provide you with information regarding your employment. The handbook also discusses the employee benefits available to you. As an employee of the judicial branch of government, you play an important role in fulfilling the court system's mission. You have the ability to help the court system find new solutions to problems and achieve our goal of fair and equitable treatment of all who appear in the courts each day. I know that you will perform your duties with enthusiasm and professionalism. We are delighted that you have chosen the Judiciary as your career.

PURPOSE OF THIS HANDBOOK

Reading through this handbook will make orientation to your new position easier. The handbook outlines the policies and rules that you are expected to abide by as an employee. It also will provide you with an appreciation of the responsibilities and the rewards of public service in the courts.

Many of these policies and rules originate in the New York State Judiciary Law, the Rules of the Chief Judge and the Rules of the Chief Administrator of the Courts. The policies and rules are subject to change as the needs of the court system and its workforce evolve. If you are represented by a union, many of your rights and obligations as a court system employee also stem from the collective bargaining agreements.

If you have any questions regarding the information in this handbook, please speak with your supervisor or contact your administrative office.
