Reminder of Sept. 30 deadline for eligible employees to request leave banking
Employees who are eligible to bank unused vacation or vacation carryover hours must make their election by September 30 of each year. In 2025, for the first time, eligible University Staff will observe the same September 30 deadline as eligible Faculty, Academic Staff, and Limited Appointees. Employees will be able to see their leave banking eligibility and make requests to bank leave in Workday. Additional information about completing leave banking in Workday will be provided to all employees as soon as it is available.
As previously announced, University Staff employees will receive vacation and personal holidays hours on a new schedule that aligns with the university’s fiscal year, which starts on July 1 and ends on June 30. This includes the schedule change for entering banked leave and/or cash payout elections. Details about the transition to this new schedule can be found on the University Staff Leave Changes website at go.wisc.edu/rb4ebg. Employees with additional questions may contact their supervisor or their local human resources office.
