Who is eligible to accrue sick days, and how is it accrued?

All regular administrative, service, and support staff at 100% FTE accrue one sick day per month of continuous employment. 75-99% FTE will accrue sick leave on a prorata basis. Employees with primary titles that are administrative, service, and support who are exempt from classification because their positions are primarily directing instructional or research activities are not subject to this policy.

Sick leave is accrued from the first day of employment and can be used on the first day of the following pay period. Administrative and professional employees accrue their sick leave on the monthly pay cycle, while office/technical and service/maintenance employees accrue sick leave on the biweekly pay schedule.
