Guidebooks and Policies by Division

The Oneida Indian Nation is the largest employer in Madison and Oneida counties and one of the top employers in the 16 counties comprising Central New York. The Oneida Indian Nation’s entity, Turning Stone Enterprises, is the employer for the Oneida Indian Nation’s operations and enterprises. The Oneida Indian Nation’s operations are generally divided into three divisions: Government Services, Business Operations and Professional Services. Each of these divisions has a separate Guidebook. While these Guidebooks are very similar, there are slight variations to policies and standards in order to address the unique nature of each division.

If you’re not sure of your division or have any questions, reach out to your leader, call People and Culture at 315-356-1800, or visit People and Culture any time.
