Wireless Devices
Recent IRS rulings and CSU systemwide mandate dictates the implementation of guidelines and procedures for providing wireless devices to employees who are required to conduct business while away from the campus and to use a wireless device in performing their assigned duties.
The following two options are available for provision of wireless devices:
- Option 1 - The department will retain the wireless equipment on campus premises, and it will be made available to employees to be checked out as needed. Monthly verification of business/personal use is required.
- Option 2 - The employee is provided an allowance to be used toward phone and service expense. The allowance is reportable wages on the employee's W-2.
