SUBJECT:	Revised Policy and Procedure Manual Section 230-10,
	Academic Leaves

I am pleased to announce the revision of Policy and Procedure Manual Section 230-10, Academic Leaves, which is effective retroactively to July 1, 2010.

A significant effort has been made to improve PPM 230-10 through clarification in policy of existing campus practice; incorporation of changes made to the UC-wide Academic Personnel Manual (APM); removal of outdated, inaccurate, or duplicated information; and non-substantive, technical editing.

The revisions also modify the extended leave policy and include a new “Change in Work Location” policy that allows deans to approve a faculty member’s absence from campus for up to 60 consecutive service days without forfeiture of sabbatical credits under certain conditions when the faculty member will continue to perform all of his or her duties from the remote location.

A summary of the major revisions to PPM 230-10 is available at:

The revised policy is available at the following Web site:
