Leave update – upcoming holidays
In observance of holidays, the university will be closed on Monday, May 26 (Memorial Day) and Thursday, June 19 (Juneteenth).
Leave reports will be automatically coded with an “H” for that day. Employees that worked on the holiday with supervisor’s approval cannot earn more than eight hours of comp holiday leave. If additional hours are worked, employees may be entitled to straight time or overtime pay, depending on their classification.
Note: If an employee has leave without pay the day before or the day after a holiday, the holiday should be coded as LWOP and they will not earn pay for the holiday. If they work on a holiday but have leave without pay the day before or day after the holiday, they will not earn compensatory leave for working on the holiday.
