Reminder of June 30 deadline to use specific earned leave

UW–Madison employees are reminded to make plans to use paid leave that will expire on June 30, 2025. Faculty, Academic Staff, and Limited Appointees with 12-month (annual basis) appointments must use personal holiday hours, earned legal holiday hours, and vacation carryover by the upcoming deadline of June 30, 2025, the end of the fiscal year.

As previously announced, beginning January 1, 2025, University Staff now receive paid leave on a new leave schedule that starts on July 1 and ends on June 30. During the transition period of Jan. 1 to June 30, 2025, University Staff must use personal holiday and legal holiday hours by June 30, 2025. University Staff will have until June 30, 2026, to use vacation carryover. Details are available on the University Staff Leave Schedule Change website at go.wisc.edu/rb4ebg.

Leave remaining after these deadlines will be lost. All UW–Madison employees who are eligible to bank leave may do so. Leave balances can be found under “Time and Absence” in MyUW. Employees with questions should contact the human resources department in their school, college, or division.
