Paid Holiday Implementation
Governor Reynolds recently announced two additional paid holidays as a show of appreciation for state employees’ service. Iowa State University will implement the paid holidays on Wednesday, November 26 and Wednesday, December 24. Normal holiday procedures will be followed on these days. Supervisors should begin to review and make decisions on necessary operations and work schedules for the additional paid holidays.
For those employees who submitted time off for November 26 or December 24 prior to President Wintersteen’s October 20 memo regarding these additional holidays, please cancel those time offs to use at another time. Step-by-step instructions have been included for your reference below:
Request Absence – submit a time off request for approval
Manage Absence – cancel a previously requested time off
Questions regarding time offs and holidays can be emailed to timeandabsence@iastate.edu.
