If you are an Exempt employee, but not a faculty member or academic year coach, you earn vacation time each pay period starting with your first day at work, as shown below:
If you are classified as an executive officer, administrative officer, or librarian, you earn 16 hours of vacation time a month, up to a maximum of 192 hours (24 days) a year. If you are a part-time employee working 20 hours a week or more, your vacation accrual is prorated, based on the actual number of hours you worked, up to 40 hours. How does it work? Each paycheck will show the total hours of your accrued vacation, excluding any time that has not yet been recorded. Your vacation time may be used whenever you choose as long as you have your supervisor’s permission. If you are a regular employee, you will receive pay in lieu of unused vacation up to the maximum allowable upon separation from Rensselaer. If you are a fixed-term employee, you must use your vacation time before the end of your current appointment as you will not receive pay in lieu of any unused vacation.
