If you have also exhausted all your vacation and compensatory time, if applicable, and need additional paid sick leave, your employer’s sick leave pool may be available to you for a catastrophic illness or injury affecting you or a family member if you meet certain requirements. Review the System Regulation 31.06.01, Sick Leave Pool Administration. To apply, contact your Human Resources office for the appropriate form. If you are not eligible for the sick leave pool or have exhausted your sick leave pool time, you may be granted up to 12 months of unpaid leave.
