Leave of Absence for Staff

A Merit System or a P&S staff member requests a leave of absence by completing a "Absence Report" form. Once this form is approved by the DEO, the department must process a leave of absence form via the HR Transaction System.

See University policy on Leave of Absence for additional information.

See Medical Leave Letter Templates and Forms provided by UI-Faculty and Staff Disability Services.

When an employee takes a leave of absence, funds for a temporary replacement are not automatically provided to the department. The DEO applies to Nancy Fick, College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, Director of Human Resources as early as possible to request temporary funding.
