48. FAQ’S Employee Self-Service (ESS) Frequently Asked Questions
49. What types of leave do I report? Vacation Sick Leave Personal Holiday ALRA Jury Duty No Leave Taken NOTE: All employees are required to report No leave Taken when no leave is taken during the month.
50. What types of leave is handled by payroll? FMLA Military Catastrophic Leave of Absence Note: Current process for reporting these types of leave will not change.
51. What if I am unable to access my portal? Internet Explorer is the recommended browser Clear your browser cache and reopen your browser (or try another computer to see if it works). To clear browser cache in Internet Explorer: Tools Menu Internet Options General Tab Browsing history Delete (check all boxes, please)
52. Will HRS warn me If I do not have enough leave left? HRS will NOT warn you if you do not have enough leave. Current balance for a particular leave type is displayed on the Absence Request Page when reporting an absence. Link on the Absence Request Page titled ‘View Absence Balances’ which displays available hours for each of your leave types.
53. How much leave must I report? Reporting is explaining in Unclassified Personnel Guideline #10, www.uwsa.edu/hr/upgs/upg10.pdf Part-time employees report actual hours missed rounded in quarter hours. Full-Time employees report sick leave in half-days and full-days (4 and 8 hours).
54. What happens if the hourly sick leave take is reported in ESS? If an unclassified employee enters an HOURLY Sick Leave Take This results in the employee entering the absence take but it is not charged as sick leave or deducted from his/her balance.  The Hourly Sick Leave absence type processes as if the take was never entered.  
55. What if I saved my absences instead of submitting? Save for Later or Submit Saved Absences can not be see by the Approver in the approval page. Best Practice is not to Save absences. Submit puts the absence in the queue to be approved. The absence can still be changed by visiting the Request History page and clicking on the edit button.
56. Why should I have to report monthly leave time away from work? Normally, salaried professionals are exempt from overtime regulations and are not accountable for a 40-hour schedule. However, public employers require reporting of leave usage to provide accountability to the public. In Wisconsin, unused sick leave has a high value after retirement. Employers contribute to fund the program. Good documentation of your eligibility for sick leave credits is part of the UW’s responsibility to the public.
57. What is my “official schedule”? The default schedule for all unclassified employees is Monday through Friday, 7:45 a.m. –4:30 p.m. With the approval of your department chair or supervisor, you may file an alternate schedule. You may change your official schedule whenever necessary. Your official schedule should total 40 hours per week (pro-rated for part-time), and should include all classes, office hours, other regularly scheduled obligations, and time for research or other self-directed work required by your appointment.
58. How do I report legal holidays? Legal Holidays are loaded for all Unclassified Employees by the UW Service Center the month following the legal holiday, to align when other leave is reported by employees. For example, the Memorial Day holiday will be loaded in June, before the June payment is processed. Employees do not report leave for a Legal Holiday. Managers do not need to approve the Legal Holiday absence. When UW Service center loads Legal Holiday, it will be automatically approved. Balances will adjust if there is a change in FTE.
59. What is the difference between Floating Holiday and Personal Holiday? Paid holidays which occur on a non-scheduled work day currently noted as a Floating Holiday, will be treated as a Personal Holiday. The HRS Payroll System recognizes the term Personal Holiday hours for all hours taken as Personal Holidays or Floating Holidays. Note: Legal Floating Holiday is Different
60. How are legal holidays counted if I work an alternate work schedule? Full-time, twelve-month pay basis employees earn 8 hours of holiday time for each paid holiday. If you work four 10-hour days/week, you will need to make up the additional 2 hours of time during the remaining week or take 2 hours of vacation on the holiday.
61. How do I report leave If I work part time? If you are a less than full time Unclassified employee, your time is reported according to your work schedule. If you are a less than full time Unclassified employee, your time is reported in actual time in increments of quarter hours.
62. Does a paper leave report still need to be used? Not typically but it is needed in some situations. A generic leave report is still needed for: Absence reporting for months prior to date of GO LIVE for Online Reporting. Special leaves being coordinated through the Employee Leaves or Workers’ Compensation programs, When adding an absence to a finalized prior period where “No Leave Taken” was initially reported, or When deleting an absence from a finalized prior period. Intermittent Employees reporting hours worked. Locked out of the Portal.
63. Why do I have to report the first day of the month for “No Leave Taken”? It is the UW Service Center policy to use the first day of the month for the Start Date and End Date for “No Leave Taken”. The End Date must be equal to the Start Date.
64. What if I have a missing leave report at the end of the fiscal year? Reduction of Sick Leave Accrual for Failing to Report Monthly Absences. If you fail to report your absences for one or more months during a fiscal year, your sick leave balance may be reduced at the end of the fiscal year. Unclassified Personnel Guideline #10 http://www.uwsa.edu/hr/upgs/upg10.pdf
65. What happens to my unused vacation at termination? Faculty, Academic Staff and Limited Appointees are entitled to be paid for any unused vacation, personal holiday and ALRA upon termination from eligible UW Extension employment. Supervisors, however, have the right to require the employee to use the vacation prior to termination (provided there is sufficient time to do so). All monthly absences must be reported and approved by your supervisor before any leave payout is done. Payment for unused paid leave may be made as a lump sum or by extending the employee on the payroll – at the discretion of the department.
66. When do I receive my leave payout? All monthly absences must be reported and approved by your supervisor before any leave payout is done. All absences must be entered into HRS before any payout is entered. All Payouts/Paybacks should be on the last active paycheck. If not, the UW Service Center has to be contacted to initiate additional steps.
67. What if I overuse any paid leave? Faculty, Academic Staff and Limited Appointees are liable for ‘overuse’ of vacation, sick leave, personal holiday, and legal holiday for the fiscal year, they must repay any negative balances upon termination. Overused leave is generally repaid by reducing the final paycheck. All monthly absences must be reported before the final paycheck is processed to ensure the dollars owed are paid back in full upon leaving employment.
68. What is a leave of absence? Leave Of Absence (LOA) Payroll status changes to “leave of absence” which is unpaid. A leave of absence for consecutive days. This type of leave is granted for Medical purposes. Partial Leave of Absence (LOA) Payroll status remains “active” A reduced work schedule (FTE change) - consistently reduced hours. Sporadic or Intermittent unpaid leave is used in lieu of paid leave.
69. How does “Unpaid Leave of Absence” affect me? Unpaid Leave of Absence (LWOP) Payroll status changes to “leave of absence” which is unpaid A leave of absence for one pay period or longer This will trigger a recalculation of Vacation, Sick Leave and Legal Holiday Under FMLA we are required to allow sporadic or Intermittent leave Military Injury in the Workplace
70. When do I report sick leave? Except for the initial entitlement, sick leave may be taken only after it has been earned. You are not required to use sick leave for doctor’s appointments, illnesses… You can substitute other paid leave (vacation, personal holiday…) if you do not want to use your sick leave. If you miss work due to illness for 5 or more consecutive days, you must provide a written physician’s certification (not required if leave is taken under the State or Federal Family Medical Leave Act). Medical certification records are maintained in Human Resources.
71. What is the difference between allocated and earned balances? Allocated Balances are the amount of Vacation and/or Legal Holiday given to an employee at the beginning of the fiscal year based on employee data. Employees are entitled to use their allocated leave through the end of the fiscal year, assuming they do not go on an extended leave or depart from their position. HRS allocates your entire years’ legal holiday hours at the beginning of the fiscal year. Best Practice is not to use those hours in advance of the holiday to avoid running out of legal holiday before the end of the fiscal year. Once your full Vacation and/or Legal Holiday Allocation buckets are empty, they will not be filled up again until the new fiscal year. Earned balances are the amount of Vacation and/or Legal Holiday that an employee earns per pay period based on paid hours or hours worked.
72. Do I lose sick leave not used in the year earned? No, your unused sick leave accumulates from year to year as long as you remain employed.
73. Does the employee report time off for Jury Duty? The Jury Duty absence take is used to record paid leave the employee receives when on Jury Duty. This absence take does not affect the leave balances. It is a way to track jury duty only.
74. What happens if I entered the Sick Leave Hourly (UCL) absence take? The Sick Leave Hourly (UCL) absence leave type is for an unclassified employee that is paid an hourly or daily equivalent of a month salary rate. If this absence is entered as an unclassified absence type the sick leave hours are not reduced from the leave balance. The Sick Leave Hourly (UCL) absence leave type is not be used by any part time or full time unclassified employees.
75. Am I required to report absences even if legal holiday appears on the HRS system? This classification is required to be in the Absence Management System. No Leave Taken is required to be submitted into Absence management, if the employee does not have any eligible absence takes
76. What if I accidentally submit an absence type and the balance hours are low or I submitted the wrong date? Once you click the Submit button you do not have access to edit your absence. Contact your supervisor right away. They can “push it back” to you so you can edit it. If your approver has already approved the absence, you will need to contact your Payroll Coordinator to make any changes. Best Practices is to always double check your absence before submitting and check your balances by clicking on the View Absence Balances link.
77. How do I report leave if I have multiple jobs? Employees with Multiple Appointments Within the same Institution/Campus a separate online absence reporting for each appointment will be located on your portal. In different Institutions/Campuses, you may or may not be live with Employee Self Service so please review your portal and contact appropriate campus if necessary. Absences will be reported on primary appointment.
78. How do I see the status of the time I have submitted? Click on the “Absence Name” hyperlink in Absence Request History to see details about the status. Every status change is time stamped and recorded including the supervisor approval of an absence.
79. What are your responsibilities for reporting leave usage? Full-time employees report paid leave (vacation, personal holiday and sick leave and ALRA) in half and full-days (4 hours and 8 hours). Part-time appointees report actual hours missed. Submit your monthly absences to your supervisor or backup approver, whichever is applicable, no later than the 5thof the following month. A leave report is due monthly, regardless of whether any leave is used during the month. Reporting is explained in Unclassified Personnel Guideline (UPG) #10, www.uwsa.edu/hr/upgs/upg10.pdf Note: Some institutions may have different reporting requirements.
