Holiday Information

Employees are granted 12 holidays. The BOR rule 8.2.7 states:  Vacation/annual leave shall be taken at times mutually acceptable to the employee and his/her supervisor; provided, however, that a University System institution may, on not more than five days, require the use of vacation/annual leave during periods in which all or substantially all of the institution’s facilities are closed because classes are not offered. Therefore, the total number of mandatory days may not exceed five days.  The university is closed on these days. Employees should request an absence for the mandatory leave days; if the employee does not have enough hours to cover the leave days then it will process as unpaid.
