What is leave re-crediting?
Leave re-crediting is defined as the restoration of sick, annual or compensatory leave that has been used in order to receive full University pay while drawing workers’ compensation benefits. The workers’ compensation check must be endorsed to the University in order to re-credit leave used. Leave is re-credited at a reduced rate. An employee cannot receive full pay and also retain supplemental workers’ compensation benefits. Employees with no accrued leave balances receive only the amount paid by Workers’ Compensation.
