With the permission of your immediate supervisor, personal leave time is available for those occasions when you must take blocks of time off from work for personal reasons. Bethel University does not retaliate against employees using this time for purposes listed under the sick and safe leave policy.

Three personal days to a maximum of 24 hours are accrued at the beginning of the first pay period for each year. Benefits eligible employees hired after the first pay period of the year earn personal days on a prorated basis. Benefits eligible employees who work less than 40 hours per week, 12 months per year, receive personal leave on a prorated basis. Leave not used by the end of the last pay period of the same year is forfeited. Employees must report personal leave usage on their Time and Leave Reports. Pay in lieu of leave is not permitted. Employees who terminate do not receive pay for unused personal leave. Once it is known that you are leaving the University, you may take a maximum of 3 personal days within the last 30 days of employment. If you do use personal leave after it is known that you are leaving, none of the days may be taken during the final week of employment.
