  • Employees must receive 11 days of pay in the pay period to accrue vacation credits for that month. Vacation credits may not be used prior to their accrual, which occurs on the first day of the following pay period.


  • Vacation requests must be submitted in advance to an employee's supervisor for approval. Based upon the operational needs of the department, vacations shall be scheduled and taken only as authorized by the appropriate administrator.


  • At the bottom of each employee’s monthly paycheck is a table that shows vacation balance information. Remember, information posted by the State Controller's Office on CSU paychecks runs one month behind and does not reflect vacation used or accrued during the last month.


  • Upon separation from the Chancellor's Office, employees are entitled to a lump sum payment of unused vacation time.
