Information on Donating to Our UVMSU Sick Bank

• Per our UVMSU Collective Bargaining Agreement, we are able to donate accumulated PTO and Sick Leave to our sick bank during benefits open enrollment (2023 Dates: November 7- December 2) or during the month of June.  

• Employees may only donate up to forty (40) hours of sick leave per calendar year and as many PTO days as desired so long as they have a balance of 20 hours in each bank after donation. 

• Leave may only be donated in full hour increments. 

• The University will send an email notification to all bargaining unit members informing them of this program, and of their ability to donate time. 

• Employees who donate time must complete and submit the University-designated form for that purpose.  The University-designated form will be included in the UVM HR invitation email to donate.

  *You are not able to donate PTO/sick time when you leave the university outside of the donation window
