The amount of vacation time earned will vary according to the years of service at Stockton University. Please refer to the Earned Time Chart for more information. Note, that the chart has been broken down according to how many hours per pay are worked. Classified employees may carry over one year’s worth of vacation into the next calendar year; anything in excess of that would show in the "Use or Lose" column in Banner Self-Service and must be used by the pay period which includes December 31.

All vacation leave time must be preapproved, and should be taken during the calendar year at such time as permitted or directed by the supervisor, unless the supervisor determines that it cannot be taken due to significant work demands.  

All 12-month classified employees earn 15 sick days per year (prorated for the first calendar year of employment and prorated for 10-month and part-time employees). Please refer to the Earned Time Chart for more information. Note, that the chart has been broken down according to how many hours per pay are worked. Sick leave accrual never expires and all employees are encouraged to build their sick leave bank. 

Classified employees earn three personal/administrative days per calendar year (prorated for the first calendar year of employment and pro-rated for 10-month or part-time employees). Please refer to the Earned Time Chart for more information. Note that personal time does not carry over to the next calendar year and must be used by the pay period which includes December 31. 

Beginning 7/1/24,  CWA and IFPTE members have one day of paid bereavement leave available to them each calendar year to use before sick leave in the event of the death of an immediate family member, specifically:

N.J.A.C. 4A:1-1.3: "Immediate family" means an employee's spouse, domestic partner (see section 4 of P.L. 2003, c. 246 ), civil union partner, child, legal ward, grandchild, foster child, father, mother, legal guardian, grandfather, grandmother, brother, sister, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and other relatives residing in the employee's household or any other individual whose close association with the employee is the equivalent of a family relationship, such as a step-relative.

Bereavement days do not accumulate or carry over and are not paid out upon separation. A bereavement leave type has been added to timekeeping. The University may require proof of death and relationship.

Some classified employees work 35 hours and others work 40 hours.  Additionally, some classified employees may have NE or NL in their titles. Classified employees should refer to the Overtime and Compensatory Time Eligibility Chart to understand how compensatory time and overtime eligibility works for NE, NL, 35-, and 40-hour a week employees. For questions regarding which classification your title falls under please contact the Office of Human Resources.  

In all cases, no compensatory time or overtime may be earned without prior approval of the division executive or their designee.
