Good Afternoon SU Colleagues,
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the State System had previously extended the timeframes for 2019 unused personal and annual leave allowing employees to utilize this leave during the full year of 2020, and through the first seven pay periods of 2021. The deadline for using the carryover, including the 2019 leave was April 9, 2021.
In recognition of the fact that the continued state-of-emergency related to the coronavirus pandemic may deprive many employees of their normal opportunities to schedule and use such excess leave, the State System will be extending the date, and will permit employees to continue carrying and using their excess 2020 (and 2019) annual leave and personal leave for the duration of the 2021 calendar year, and through the first seven (7) pay periods into the 2022 leave calendar year.
If you have any questions about this extension or your leave balances, please contact the Human Resources Office. We are happy to assist.
Thank you,
Shippensburg University Human Resources
