Personal days

Full-time, 12 month/year staff are provided with two personal days off each year to support work-life balance and personal needs. All other benefited staff receive one personal day per year.

These days are available as of July of each year and must be used within the same year—they do not carry over into the next year if unused.

Personal days should be taken in full-day increments, 7.5 hours for 37.5 hour/week staff and 8 hours a week for 40/week staff. While personal leave may be used in partial-day increments when necessary, employees are encouraged to schedule and use these days as full days.

Staff are required to request these days in advance, following standard time-off request procedures, to ensure appropriate scheduling and coverage.

Unused personal days will expire annually on June 30, so staff are encouraged to plan ahead and make full use of this benefit. Unused personal days will not be paid out at the end of employment.
