Provide any extended vacation time (3 or more days) that you anticipate taking during this calendar year. Supervisors should be given a minimum of two week's notice for use of any one or two day requests. 

Vacation time must be taken in half-day or full-day increments, although full-day increments are encouraged. In addition, vacation days may not be accumulated from on vacation year to the next. The policy is "use it or lose it." If vacation is not taken, then it is lost.

Personal days must be approved by the employee's supervisor, and the request should be made at least two weeks in advance of the desired day so that proper coverage can be arranged. It is expected that personal days will be taken in half-day or full-day increments.
