Reminder: Submit Leave Reports
June 3, 2020

All Faculty, Academic Staff and Limited appointees (who have an active leave-eligible appointment) are required to submit a leave report each month, even when leave is not used.

Employees on a consecutive day furlough are required to enter leave reports while they are on furlough. If no leave was taken for a month a “No Leave Taken” entry should be made.

With the fiscal year-end quickly approaching (June 30), now is the time to make sure you have submitted all your leave reports since July 1, 2019. To check if you are missing any leave reports, follow these steps:

1. Log into the MyUW portal for UW System Institutions or for UW-Madison.
2. Go to the Time and Absence module and click Launch full app.
3. Click on Leave Reports.
4. Review the “Missing Leave Report Between July 2019 and May 2020.
5. To submit any missing leave reports, click on Request Absence and follow the prompts.

If you are missing any leave reports, you will receive a reminder email indicating the month(s) you are missing. Failure to submit any leave report(s) by the September 30 deadline following the fiscal year end (July – June) will result in a reduction of your sick leave hours. If possible, submit your leave reports monthly to avoid any issues.

For more detailed information on the sick leave policies review:

• UW System Administrative Policy 1212 (formerly BN 3), Sick Leave (section 4.G.(3) and (7)
• UW-Madison Sick Leave Policy (section VIII)

Visit the Time and Absence Help Pages for assistance with reporting leave. If you have questions or are unable to report your leave at the link above, contact your Institutional Leave Administrator.

Reminders:

• Consecutive Day Furlough – For employees who may be on a consecutive day furlough, leave reports are still required. If no leave is taken during the month, you are required to submit a No Leave Taken entry.
• Intermittent Day Furlough – For weeks in which intermittent furlough is taken, the entry of furlough time taken does not satisfy the monthly leave reporting requirement. If no leave is taken during the month, you are required to submit a No Leave Taken entry.
