Eligible employees are reminded that this year’s floating holiday expires on Aug. 31. Unused floating holiday hours do not carry over to the next fiscal year. A floating holiday will be available in 2008-09.
Eligible UNT employees have 14 holidays, including the new floating holiday, each fiscal year. The floating holiday was created to allow eligible employees one day of paid time off during the fiscal year on a date of their choosing with supervisor approval.
Employees who use the floating holiday should enter FHD code on the timesheet and check the box on the UPO-15 to indicate that the holiday leave was approved by the supervisor in advance, says Kristina Randolph, administrative services officer, Human Resources.
For more information about how the floating holiday is calculated, or to download the new UPO-15 form, which has a box for the floating holiday, go to the Human Resources’ homepage at http://www.hr.unt.edu/main/.
