Compensatory Leave Reminder
Have you earned compensatory leave? Make sure you are aware of the compensatory leave limits and expirations. Compensatory leave is earned by classified staff on an hour-for-hour basis when an employee works:
- On a holiday
- When the university is officially partially or fully closed
- On a scheduled day off
Limits and Expiration:
- Employees are limited to 96 hours of accrued compensatory leave
- Per State Policy 3.10, accrued compensatory leave expires one year from the pay period in which the hours are accrued, regardless of the 96-hour limit
- Compensatory leave may not be used once hours expire or lapse and cannot be paid out upon an employee’s change of status
You can review your leave balance by visiting the Patriot Web “Employee Services” tab and selecting “Leave Balances and History.” If you have questions, email payroll@gmu.edu.
