Leaves for Employees (Paid & Unpaid)   (See Policy #1001)

UNMC provides for various types of paid and unpaid employee leaves. It is the intent of UNMC to grant paid or unpaid leave to regular employees under appropriate circumstances. For regular part-time employees, the rate is adjusted according to the employee's FTE. All leave must be recorded in a manner prescribed by Payroll. A record-keeping system for leave usage must be maintained by departments. UNMC leave policies are based on the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993, the Uniformed Service Employment and Re-employment Rights Act (USERRA) of 1994, Nebraska Revised Statutes §55-160 et seq. and §81-1391, and University of Nebraska Central Administration Employee Absences and Crisis Leave Sharing policies and practices. The Employee Leave Policy includes: Administrative Leave, Bereavement/Funeral Leave, Civil Leave, Crisis Leave, Family/Medical Leave, Holiday Leave, Inclement Weather, Injury Leave, Leave of Absence without Pay, Military Leave, Parental Leave, Sick Leave, and Vacation Leave.
