Leave Accruals to Be Restored for November 19, 2014, Snowstorm

Due to technical failures in the new communication systems at the Governor’s Office of Employee Relations (GOER) and SUNY, Buffalo State did not receive timely notification of the governor’s authorization to close state offices on November 19, 2014. At that time, GOER determined that employees must charge accruals for absences on that day. Upon further review, GOER reconsidered its initial determination and decided that accruals will be restored for employees who were absent because of the storm on November 19. 

The accrual restoration applies only to absences that were directly related to the storm. It does not apply to employees who were out on approved absences that were not storm related, such as sick leave or scheduled vacation.

The Human Resource Management and Payroll offices will review the attendance reports filed by professional and management employees and the biweekly timesheets submitted by classified employees to restore vacation, personal, or holiday leave charged for November 19, 2014. The changes will be reflected in the classified employee biweekly timesheets and the monthly online attendance records for professional employees by April 30, 2015.
