If the vacation / sick leave was already scheduled, the university closure does not apply. The university policy reads:
* Guidelines for Compensation during Emergency Closings* a. Employees who are on sick, vacation, or personal leave (or are scheduled for such) would continue to have the time away from work charged to their respective accrual accounts, because they would not have been at work during the Emergency Closing. b. Non-bargained for employees, POAM and POLC members who are scheduled to work qualify for payment for their regularly scheduled work hours for that Operational Day. Employees who do work are to be paid for time worked and be granted compensatory leave at the rate of one hour for each hour worked. Compensatory leave should be scheduled within the next four (4) weeks, at a time to be mutually agreed upon between the employee and the immediate supervisor. c. Other bargained-for employees (OUCMT, OUPSA and AAUP) should refer to their respective collective bargaining agreement. d. Excluded CT employees who report for work and do work at the request and/or direction of the University will receive compensatory time off at the rate of one hour for each hour of work actually performed on the date the University was officially closed. Such compensatory time should be consumed within the next four (4) weeks, at a time to be mutually agreed upon between the employee and the immediate supervisor. e. Temporary, casual and student employees are not eligible to be paid except for hours actually worked and approved by their supervisor.
