Payment for any unused accrued vacation time will be payable in a separate check processed in the following pay period following the termination. If you have direct deposit, this amount will be deposited into your bank account.

Staff members may receive payment for unused sick time only if certain age and service criteria are fulfilled. Payment for unused accrued sick time will be payable in a separate check processed in the subsequent pay period following the termination.
