Why would I use Annual Leave?

How is annual leave earned/accrued?

Hire Date	Years of Service (YOS)	Rate	Hours per pay	Days per year	Hours per year
After 7/1/2011	First 3 YOS	4.24%	3.18	11	82.50

Effective with the beginning of the 2017 leave calendar year, employees who have over one year of service from their most recent date of hire and who use no sick leave (other than sick leave used for bereavement leave) in an entire one-half leave calendar year shall earn an additional 3.75 or 4.0 hours of annual leave.

How do I request and use annual leave?

Requests are made through Employee Self-Service (ESS).

Employees must have at least 30 calendar days of service before annual leave can be used.
Permanent employees with less than one year of service may, at the Employer's discretion, anticipate up to one (1) day of annual leave before it is earned.
Employees with more than one year of service may request to use annual leave that is expected to be earned in the current leave calendar year.

What happens if I don't use all of my annual leave in the same calendar year?

What happens to my unused annual leave if I end employment or retire?
