Text Box: Certifying Effort (cont.)
OMB requires documentation and certification of percent of effort, totaling 100%, in support of one’s total commitment to the university. In order to meet this requirement for documentation and certification, each individual paid on a monthly basis and who has some commitment towards a sponsored program, shall certify their effort based on the distribution of total compensation paid to the individual during that month.

Employees shall review, indicate adjustments, and certify by signing.

Reports shall be returned to ORSP promptly.
