We have had a number of recent inquiries by members concerning requests by the College to have the members use up their excess annual leave by March 2012.
Our advise to members is that you identify the days you wish to take the leave which can include SWF time. We are aware of a number of faculty who have had no difficulty using their excess leave during SWF periods as well as during non-SWF periods.
If your request to take the leave is denied and/or the manager dictates the days to be taken without taking into consideration your selection of dates, please contact the union, and we will assist accordingly.
