Xref: PPP 400
402.1 Definition of Administrative Leave
Administrative leave is a leave of absence initiated by the University to deal with special circumstances in which it is desirable to continue an employee's association with the University for the period of the leave. Administrative leave is normally without pay and carries no promise of future re-employment.
402.2 Eligibility for Administrative Leave
An employee may qualify for administrative leave at the discretion of the University.
402.3 Duration of Administrative Leave
An administrative leave of absence will normally be limited to three months, but may be for a longer period at the option of the University when the employee's service record warrants.
402.4 Benefits during Administrative Leave
Benefits coverage, if any, during the administrative leave will be determined by the Director of Personnel Services or the Director of Human Resources for the School of Medicine based on the appropriateness of the coverage in individual circumstances. The employee must make arrangements with the Benefits Office to ensure continuation of coverage.
402.5 Termination
An administrative leave of absence automatically ends and the employee is terminated if he or she accepts other employment without prior approval by the Director of Personnel Services or the Director of Human Resources for the School of Medicine, files for Unemployment Compensation, refuses a job offer from the University deemed appropriate by the Department of Human Resources, is discharged, or resigns.
