UC faculty and staff are encouraged to consider donating vacation time under the UC Leave Donation plan to help co-workers ease the strain of time off work without pay due to a serious health condition.
There is a current need for donated vacation time.
A donor may donate between four (4) and forty (40) hours of vacation time but must retain at least 240 hours of combined leave (sick, vacation and comp time) after the donation. The names of the donors will be held confidential and will not be disclosed to the recipient or their department.
