Use of Leave

Full-time classified employees accrue ertain types of leave at the end of the pay period of service. Any type of accrued leave is not available for use until the first day of the following pay period after it is credited. No leave can be granted in anticipation of future leave accruals or allotments.

Part-time classified employees accrue leave on a prorated basis for each pay period of service. Part-time classified employees are also eligible for prorated leave, administrative leave, and leave. All the same policy and record keeping requirements apply for part-time classified employees as full-time employees.

All leave (except Recognition Leave) is entered online in the Banner Web Time Entry System (WTE), where 圖朸厙 employees can electronically log and submit their hours worked and leave taken for approval. Employees can access Banner and their timesheets via the LeoOnline portal (login with MIDAS ID).

All leave must be earned before it can be used. As far as practicable, a leave of absence with pay will be granted at the time requested by the employee. Leave shall be requested in advance and is subject to the needs of the department. Where the need for or time of an absence cannot be anticipated (i.e. illness) and where conditions warrant, the supervisor may approve leave after an absence.

Please see University Policy 6040: Classified Leave Reporting Procedures.
