Staff Annual Leave Forfeiture Reminder

April 7, 2023

When the University transitions to the new fiscal year annually in July, annual leave balances are rolled over, up to a maximum of 240 hours. Any balance over 240 hours is forfeited. (Members of the firefighters union may roll over a maximum of 500 hours.)

UA Human Resources has reviewed the current annual leave balance for staff as of April 3, 2023 and projected how much leave could be earned before the end of this fiscal year. They have identified employees who may have more than the allowable limit of annual leave at the time of the roll. UA HR sent impacted staff emails this morning (4/7/23) with current and projected leave balance levels listed. Reminders will be sent in May and June using fresh data to ensure employees take advantage of the opportunities available through our benefits program.

  • Using Annual Leave: The last timesheet to report annual leave usage prior to the annual leave roll process will be July 1, the end of payroll 14. 
  • Annual Leave Cash-In: The last day to submit annual leave cash-in forms is June 16. Please review the website for how to request the annual leave cash-in and the eligibility requirements. 

Please contact UA HR at 907-450-8200 or email UA-HR@alaska.edu  if you have any questions.
