Sick Time

The university provides salary protection for employees who are unable to work because of an illness or injury. The amount of sick time varies based on position and length of service. Please note that sick time is for employee illness only; if a family member is ill, personal or vacation time must be used. For complete details, please refer to the Sick Time Policy.
