December 2025 Curtailment Information
|
UC San Diego has four (4) university-paid holidays (December 24, 25, 31, 2025, and January 1, 2026) during the Holiday/Winter period. Refer to the Holiday Schedule Campus Notice for more information.
|
-
Timekeeping: Please be mindful of the December 2025 Timekeeping Deadlines, especially the last bi-weekly deadline.
- If a bi-weekly timecard is not submitted by the deadline, that payment will be delayed and paid on the next pay cycle.
- Staff employees must charge any working days during the closure period not covered by paid holidays to accrued vacation, accrued compensatory time off (non-exempt only), or leave without pay (use curtailment pay code).
- Non-represented Employees – Leave Accrual: If employees do not have enough accrued vacation or accrued compensatory time off to cover the three (3) working days during the closure (Dec. 26, 29, and 30, 2025) they may request a one-time advance of up to three (3) days of vacation to cover the absence.
-
Employees who elect to take leave without pay (use curtailment pay code) will continue to accrue vacation and sick leave credits.
- If “Leave without Pay,” is chosen, the Ecotime Pay Code “Curtailment” must be selected to ensure the accruals continue.
