In what increments is sick leave reported?
Full-time faculty and academic staff appointments report sick leave, according to University policy, in one-half and full day increments. Absences between one-quarter day (2 hours) and three-quarters day (6 hours) are charged as one-half day (4 hours). Absences greater than three-quarters day (6 hours) and one and one-quarter day (10 hours) are charged as one day (8 hours).Part-time, less than a 100% appointment, faculty and academic staff charge sick leave on an hour for hour basis in accordance with their approved work schedule. While leave is earned on the basis of your percentage of appointment, sick leave is charged based on the actual use, not your percentage of appointment.
