For interpretation of this policy, please contact the responsible department: Human Resources, 909/537-5138.

Management Personnel Plan employees accrue vacation at the rate of two days (16 hours) per month of service for each qualifying pay period.  A qualifying pay period exists when an employee is in pay status for at least eleven days of a month.

Under the Management Personnel Plan, an employee with 10 years or less of service may accrue up to 384 hours of vacation.  An employee with more than 10 years of service may accrue up to 440 hours of vacation. Any vacation which the appointing power allows to accumulate beyond the maximum shall be taken in the first quarter of the next calendar year.

The policy at CSUSB encourages employees to use accrued vacation for a period of relaxation away from work.  Large, accrued vacation balances are indicative that vacation time is not being taken as the benefit it was designed to provide.  MPP employees are to avoid large vacation accrual balances.

The appropriate supervisor of an employee covered by this policy may require the employee to use his or her vacation time at the convenience of the university.   Vacation shall be taken as directed or authorized by the appropriate administrator and shall be scheduled by mutual agreement whenever possible.  Appropriate supervisors shall monitor, on a quarterly basis, the vacation time accumulated by subordinates.
