Please notify all employees in your department of this important information.

Compensatory leave payouts will be included in paychecks issued on December 18, 2020. The payout amount is based on each employee’s compensatory leave balance on December 10, 2020. 

Please remember that employees wishing to retain their unused compensatory leave balances must have their requests approved by their department and received in Human Resources no later than Friday, December 4, 2020. 

Requests to “Carry Forward” Unused Compensatory Leave

Compensatory leave may be retained rather than paid out. Employees may request to retain their unused compensatory leave as follows:

1. Submit the Request to Retain Compensatory Leave Form to their supervisor and Dean, Director, or Department Head.
2. Once approved by the department, all retention request forms must be forwarded to Human Resources for review and final approval by the Associate Vice President for Human Resources. Send completed forms to Carmen Edwards at cedwards3@fsu.edu.
3. Deadline: Request to Retain Compensatory Leave Retention Forms must be received in Human Resources by December 4, 2020. 

If the employee’s compensatory leave balance on December 10, 2020, is less than one hour, it will be paid out and CANNOT be carried forward. Compensatory leave earned beginning December 11, 2020, will be available for use until December 2021.
