What it does: Provides paid leave for family-related emergencies (through sick leave).

How it works: Leave for family-related emergencies is restricted to a total of 10 days (80 hours) during a calendar year for absence necessitated by the serious illness or death of a family member or any individual residing in the same household. Use of such leave must be recorded through the regular leave reporting system so that total usage during the period can be monitored. Restricted faculty may use 80 hours of their earned sick leave or annual leave for these purposes.

Who’s eligible: Faculty.
