Vacation Policy Update

Clarkson is pleased to announce recent updates to the existing vacation policy.  Our goal continues to ensure that employees have the opportunity to use their earned vacation and to continue to provide flexibility by allowing staff to carry over several unused days into the next fiscal year.  Clarkson also recognizes the benefits and importance of staff taking time off.

Effective July 1, 2020

General Staff:

Employees who celebrate their 11 year through 20 year anniversary will now receive 20 vacation days.

  • Current policy adds one day per anniversary year for 11-14 years of service.

General Staff and Administrative/Supervisory Staff:

  • 5 Days of carry over with no cash value, must be used by Aug. 30
  • Example: If on June 30 of 2020, you have any remaining vacation days, up to 5 will carry over to the new fiscal year. You will have from July 1, 2020 to August 31, 2020 to use those days.

These polices will be updated in section 8 of the operations manual on our intranet in December 2019.

The updated policies are attached for your reference.
