As part of the University’s commitment to improving human resources systems through its HReimagined initiative, regular, benefits eligible non-exempt employees are now able to accrue more leave earlier in their service with UA and reach the maximum accrual sooner as well.
“The enhancement to accrued annual leave for our non-exempt employees was wholeheartedly endorsed by President Stuart Bell and Vice President for Finance and Operations Matt Fajack and I am grateful to them for their leadership and support,” said Susan Norton, senior associate vice president for human resources and chief human resources officer.
The enhanced annual leave accrual will take place immediately. Detailed annual leave comparison charts are available for review below:
