July 15, 2011

ALL ACADEMICS AND STAFF AT UCSD (excluding UCSD Medical Center)

SUBJECT:    Holiday Schedule - December 24, 2011 to January 2, 2012

During the 2011 holiday season, UC San Diego (excluding the hospitals and clinics) will officially close for ten (10) days between Saturday, December 24, 2011 and Monday, January 2, 2012. This closure will result in significant energy savings from reduced operations.

The closure period includes four (4) University paid holidays (December 26, 27, 30, 2011 and January 2, 2012). Staff employees must charge any working days during the closure period not covered by paid holidays to accrued vacation, accrued compensatory time off (non-exempt only), or leave without pay. Academic employees on fiscal year appointments must charge the time off to accrued vacation or leave without pay.

Non-represented employees who do not have accrued vacation or accrued compensatory time off to cover the two (2) working days during the closure (December 28 and 29) may request a one-time advance of up to two (2) days of vacation to cover the absence. Non-represented employees who elect to take leave without pay for up to two (2) days of the closure period will continue to accrue vacation and sick leave credits. For exclusively represented employees, these closure days will be handled in accordance with existing contract provisions or collective bargaining where applicable.

UC San Diego departments and units that need to remain open during the closure period must notify their respective vice chancellors to do so.

Staff employees with questions regarding the holiday closure should contact Employee Relations, Human Resources Department at employeerelations@ucsd.edu or (858) 534-4115. Staff employees in Health Sciences/Health System with questions regarding the closure should contact Evelyn Hidalgo, Assistant Dean/HR Administration at ehidalgo@ucsd.edu or (858) 822-4343.
