Sick Leave Accrual Rates

In the payroll system, sick leave is accrued on a daily basis with a format using two decimal places. The per-period amount can be obtained by multiplying the daily accrual rate by the number of paid work days in the period. Each employee will receive this daily accrual amount in hours unless they are in an unpaid status for that day or they have arrived at the maximum accrual as specified by their contract.

The following employee groups have the same accrual rates:

  • BH/BS - Broadcast Hourly and Salaried
