The University recognizes the dedication and commitment of its part-time
staff, and grants paid vacation to part time employees who are regularly scheduled to work 1,000 hours or more per
year and have completed five (5) years of continuous service. Beginning on the January 1st following the
five (5) year anniversary, the vacation entitlement is as follows:
|
Years of Service |
Vacation Entitlement |
|
January 1 of the year after the employee reaches five (5) years of service |
One week * |
|
January 1 of the year after the employee reaches ten (10) years of service |
Two weeks * |
* A week is defined as the number of hours an employee is regularly scheduled to work in a pay week.
Vacation must be taken within the calendar year. No payment will be made for unused vacation
entitlement unless your failure to use vacation is at the request of the University.
Vacation time of less than one day is recorded in hourly blocks, with a
minimum of one hour. If you are on a planned vacation period and become ill,
you are still charged for the vacation time which you had originally
planned. Similarly, if you were on a planned vacation period when the
University closes for weather or other emergency reasons, you are still
charged for the vacation time which you had originally planned.
When significant absences occur in the prior year, your January 1st vacation
allotment may be pro-rated to account for the extended absence. Similarly,
if you return to work from an extended absence late in the year, you may be
restricted from using some or all vacation credits in that year.
Vacation schedules within a department are generally arranged according to
the needs of the department, seniority, and employee preference. Final
approval of vacation schedules is given by the department head. Vacation
requests should be submitted at least two weeks in advance of the scheduled
vacation
When you terminate your employment, unused vacation days will be paid except
in if failure to give two weeks notice of a resignation or in
certain discharge situations.
Note: The provisions of all benefits described on the Human Resources web
pages are stated for summary purposes only. The University retains the
exclusive authority to construe the terms of the programs described and to
determine whether an employee is eligible for benefits under any program.
The University further reserves the right to amend or revoke any policy or
plan at any time with or without notice.
