Academic Staff and Limited employees may now enter leave reports for December 2017. Please submit requests online by Friday, Jan. 19, 2018. Legal holiday hours are loaded and automatically approved for full-time employees. Part-time employees must submit absence requests each time they use legal holiday hours; the hours are not loaded automatically. Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve are floating holidays for the 2017-2018 fiscal year. Those 16 LH hours (pro-rated for part-time employees), may be used any time during the fiscal year. They must be used by June 30, 2018, or they will be lost.
Supervisors, please approve submissions by Friday, Jan. 26, 2018, and check back frequently for more submissions requiring approval. Leave reports are still considered “missing,” until they have been approved by the supervisor.
Tips and Reminders:
• If entering “No Leave Taken,” enter the first day of the calendar month for both the START and END dates of your entry; i.e. 12/01/2017-12/01/2017 for December, etc.
• Absences should be entered using the date of the absence; do not use date ranges.
• All Faculty/Academic Staff/Limited employees who earn sick leave are required to submit monthly leave reports, even if no leave is used.
