Ithaca College

Vacation Time
On June 1, 2020, Ithaca College moved to an accrual-based vacation time model. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the maximum vacation balance for FY 20/21 was increased by the equivalent of 10 days’ worth of accrued time (pro-rated based on percentage of full time). This change is only in effect for FY 20/21. Beginning July 1, 2021, the maximum amount of vacation time you are allowed to accrue will revert back to 1.5 times your annual amount.

Thank you for your participation in the Supervisor's Meeting last week. 

As part of our preparations for spring, we will be sending shortly to all staff a request that they complete the Daily Health Screening and Testing Registration form for the spring semester. This form asks that employees indicate how often they will be on campus in the spring and whether their position is high or low contact. This will help us with tailoring the Daily Health Screening to employee needs and the frequency at which employees should be testing. Your employees may reach out to you for assistance with completing the form. Please use some of the strategies we discussed in the Supervisor's Meeting for making determinations about who must be on campus in the spring versus who can remain remote. Please reach out to your Vice President as needed for more guidance. Supervisors will receive a summary of all direct reports registration information so that you can follow up to discuss directly with them if their plans for accessing campus in the spring are inconsistent with how your department will be operating in the spring.
