Dear Colleagues,
CU Denver will be granting two additional days of paid time off this fiscal year—Monday, Jan. 16 (Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day) and Friday, March 24 (the Friday of Spring Break)—so you can take time for yourselves and the communities and activities you care about without having to use vacation time. This is a part of a working group who is studying current holiday and observances calendar to make short- and longer-term recommendations to help ensure that the cadence and composition of time off we are providing is intentional and considered through an equity lens. The committee’s work will continue as they prepare a holistic recommendation for FY24-25. Click here to review the Chancellor’s email from November 28th: “CU Denver to Provide Off Jan. 16 & March 24, 2023”
For those who are eligible for holidays, the MyLeave process instructions are below. If you had already entered vacation leave for either of these days, please be sure to delete the vacation hours from your calendar.
