September and October Online Leave Reports / Sick Leave Reduction
Employees may now enter leave reports for October 2018, and for September 2018, if not previously submitted. Please submit online entries by Wednesday, Oct. 31.
Supervisors, please approve submissions by Wednesday, Nov. 7, 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 the entry; i.e. 10/01/2018 for October.
- Absences should be entered using the date of the absence. Date ranges should not be used, unless entered carefully and for the workweek only. Do not cross over weekends, months, or legal holidays.
- All Faculty/Academic Staff/Limited employees who earn sick leave are required to submit monthly leave reports, even if no leave is used.
- REVIEW your leave balances (online or on your earnings statements).
- Reductions have been made to Sick Leave earnings for employees with missing leave reports for the 2017-2018 fiscal year. There is a short window of time to enter those missing leave reports and have the SL reduction restored. If you had a reduction in SL (shown on your 10/01/18 earnings statement), please submit your missing leave reports, as soon as possible.

To enter an absence, please use Steps # 16–27 of the instructions (see link above). Full-time employees report absences in four-hour increments, based on the notes below. Part-time employees report the actual number of hours absent from work, in quarter-hour increments.
Absent less than 2 hours = Report 0 hours leave used
Absent 2-6 hours = Report 4 hours leave used
Absent more than 6 hours = Report 8 hours leave used
