Paid Leave
Holidays
The CSU offers employees 14 paid holidays each year; 13 scheduled on specific days and one you may take any time during the year.
Vacation
You earn vacation days based on your years of service. Part-time employees accrue vacation on a prorated basis. Academic year employees do not earn vacation.
Sick Leave
For each month of continuous service, you accumulate eight hours of credit for sick leave with pay. Part-time employees accrue sick leave on a prorated basis. Accrued sick leave is converted to service credit for employees retiring with CalPERS.
Bereavement/Funeral Leave
If you experience the death of an immediate family member or a significantly close relative as defined by your collective bargaining agreement or respective policy, the CSU provides you with bereavement/funeral leave with pay.
Organ Donor Leave Program
After exhausting all available sick leave you are eligible for up to 30 days paid leave if you donate an organ, and up to five days paid leave if you donate bone marrow.
Jury Duty
The CSU will continue your salary while on jury duty, regardless of length of jury service. In order to receive your salary for days served in a state court, you must submit Proof of Service, which will be provided to you as a state of California employee. For days served as a juror in a federal court, you must make your jury duty stipend payable to the CSU. You are entitled to keep any travel expenses (i.e., mileage) associated with jury duty service.
