Unclassified Employee Vacation Leave Earnings
This is a reminder that unclassified employees, appointed to twelve-month positions, may earn vacation leave to a maximum of 22 days (176 hours) per fiscal year. Vacation leave is earned for the first and second biweekly pay periods each month during the first eleven months of the fiscal year. No vacation leave is earned on the third pay date in any month, such as January 31 and August 29 this year. Employees appointed after the beginning of the fiscal year will earn vacation leave during the twelfth month (June) as long as it does not exceed the 22 day maximum.

Also, the maximum number of accrued vacation leave days is limited to 38 days (304 hours). At the time this threshold is achieved, vacation leave hours will not be earned until the 38 day balance is reduced.

Questions should be addressed to Benefits Administration at (785) 532-6277.
