From: Willeen McQuitta, Director, Staff Human Resources
Re: Campus Closure 2002-03
This is to announce the 2002-03 campus closure that will occur from Tuesday, December 24, 2002 through Wednesday, January 1, 2003. In all, the campus will be closed for nine days; four days are the scheduled holidays (December 24, 25, 31, 2002, and January 1, 2003), two days are weekend days, and the remaining three days (December 26, 27, and 30) are "normal" workdays.
To cover "normal" workdays, staff employees (full-time) will have the option to use 24 hours of vacation, compensatory time off, or leave without pay. Employees without sufficient accumulated vacation will be allowed to use up to three days of vacation leave prior to actual accrual. New employees who are normally required to wait six months before using accrued vacation will be allowed to use their vacation even if the required waiting period has not been completed. Part-time employees who are eligible to accrue vacation may borrow vacation hours on a prorated basis in accordance with their percent of appointment. Employees scheduled to work on December 26, 27, and 30 will be compensated at their regular rate of pay.
Due to the diverse responsibilities of academic appointees and the flexibility in performing their obligations, it is anticipated that some academic appointees will continue working during the campus closure. Fiscal-year (eleven-month) appointees will be expected to use vacation for this period, if the closure precludes their working.
Campus service centers may refer to the Staff Human Resources (SHR) Procedures Manual, Campus Closure: Questions and Answers beginning on page F13-5 for additional information. The information can also be accessed at the following Staff Human Resources web-site address: http://www2.ucsc.edu/staff_hr/compensation/manual/sectnf/f13.pdf on page F13-5.
Questions concerning academic employees should be directed to the divisional academic personnel coordinators. If you have questions regarding staff employees, please contact your SHR Consulting Services analyst.
Please also see the "Exceptions to Closure" memorandum from Director Kolbus, Physical Plant, at http://www.ucsc.edu/news_events/messages/02-03/12-02.except.html.
