Traditional Sick Leave Program
The traditional Sick Leave program is available to employees hired before January 1, 1999 and to all new faculty. It includes a disability retirement option for classified staff and VRS faculty.
Classified
Full-time classified staff accrue 10 hours per month. Part-time classified staff earn a proportionate amount. Sick leave must be earned before it is used and may not be advanced. An unlimited number of hours may be accrued and 1/3 of the sick leave balance may be used for family illness. Classified employees with five or more years of continuous service are paid for 25% of any unused sick leave at separation, up to a maximum of $5000.
