The University will pay all accrued, but unused vacation to any employee who ends University employment after at least three months of continuous employment. The termination can be for any reason, including resignation, firing, retirement, and death. Sick leave payments stop when University employment ends due to resignation, retirement, or death. Employees may use up to 10 days of their available sick leave per fiscal year for family illness. Leaves Without Pay During all approved personal leaves, the employee pays his or her regular portion of group insurance premiums and the University continues its usual contribution.
All personal leaves are without pay.
Personal leave may be used for religious observance, research, education, newborn infant care, personal business, illness, disability, vacation, and other situations that cannot be addressed through a paid leave. Personal leaves granted for medical reasons run concurrently with leave allowed under the Family and Medical Leave Act. For information on the approval process for granting a personal leave, please contact your Human Resource Service Team or refer to the Business Procedures Manual on the World Wide Web.
