Sick Leaves
- Sick leave for an employee’s serious illness is charged to the current Department, Lab, Center, or Institute (DLCI) account where the salary was being charged on the date the leave begins. Sick leave consists of accrued sick leave, Serious Illness Reduced Pay (SIRP), and transitional (for salaried staff hired prior to 1/1/21).
- An exception to the above is for staff paid on sponsored research funds. For these employees, the first consecutive 30 days of leave is charged to the department. On day 31 of consecutive leave, the salary charges will be moved to an Institute account.
- Currently, intermittent leave for those on sponsored research accounts can not be charged to Institute accounts. (This policy is under review).
Family Leaves
- PFMLA Family Leave salary charges are covered by Institute funds.
At this time, SAP does not automatically charge the Institute account for sponsored research staff medical leaves or for any family leaves. This will be automated in the future but until that time, there will be regular audits to move charges to these accounts.
