It’s hard to believe we are halfway through our fiscal year (July 1 – June 30)! This is a good time to review your annual time balance as well as the annual time carryover policy to ensure you take your well-earned time away from work. [Add language for managers and link to tip sheet for managers to check staff balances and encourage/plan use of time off]
The Annual Time Carryover policy allows for full-time employees to carry over up to 40 hours of annual time into the next fiscal year. Part-time employees may carry over up to 20 hours of annual time into the next fiscal year. As of July 1, when you submit a time off request in Kronos, your carryover hours will automatically be used before current the fiscal year annual time hours. Please remember, carryover hours must be used by August 31, 2021.
While COVID-19 continues to challenge the way we envision a “vacation,” it’s important to use annual time, even when it means a few days of staycation away from the screen and demands of balancing life/work at the same time.
Please reference the Time Off and Leave Guide or reach out to Benefits at timeoff@gwu.edu with questions about your time off programs.
