Sick Leave

Definition

Sick leave is provided to continue the salary of an eligible employee who is absent from work because of illness, disability, medical appointments, and, on a limited basis, in case of family illness or bereavement.

Application

Sick leave shall not be used:

Prior to its accrual;
Beyond a predetermined date of separation, retirement, or indefinite layoff;
In excess of the employee's scheduled hours of work;
During a temporary layoff, furlough, or leave without pay. However, an employee may use accrued sick leave during a pregnancy or family and medical leave.

Supervisor's Checklist

Requests for the use of sick leave shall be made in accordance with University or departmental procedures.
An employee may be required to give at least 30 days advance notice of foreseeable medical needs (e.g., a planned medical treatment).
If a 30-day notice is not possible, an employee must submit satisfactory proof of inability to work, illness in the family, or bereavement.
