An important message from FSU Office of Human Resources

This message has been approved by Christine Conley, Director of Benefits & Leave, for distribution to all Department Representatives.

Department Representatives and Supervisors: Please read the following message in its entirety.

Due to severe weather and its impact on the main campus, FSU was closed May 10, 2024 - May 12, 2024. Below is guidance on handling timekeeping and managing hours worked due to this closure.

When and why does FSU provide Administrative Leave for the closure?
Administrative Leave (Admin Leave) for university closures compensates employees prevented from working due to the closure to make them whole to their daily scheduled hours. Salaried employees (USPS, A&P, Executive Service, and Faculty) working in a main campus location closed on May 10, 2024, may receive Administrative Leave equivalent to their established scheduled hours. Departments and employees must enter Administrative Leave Taken - ADMHT on their timesheets with the override code CLOSE.

How much Administrative Leave should be entered on my timesheet for May 10, 2024?
Employees with an established work schedule on the main Tallahassee campus during regular business operations hours are generally provided 8 hours of Administrative Leave for the closure (see example below). Employees located outside of main campus, including FSUS, will not be provided Administrative Leave.

Employees designated as Essential Personnel
Employees designated by their Dean, Director, Department Head, or designee as Essential Critical Personnel or Medium Priority Personnel should report the correct hours worked during the closure. The compensation of Essential Personnel is contingent upon an employee's FLSA classification, pay band, and essential personnel designation level as outlined in the Essential Personnel Classification & Compensation<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpolicies.vpfa.fsu.edu%2Fpolicies-and-procedures%2Ffaculty-staff%2Fattendance-and-leave%23E13&data=05%7C02%7Chrms%40lists.fsu.edu%7Cb3a608ec0ca94838519308dc73753a52%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C638512194529580236%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=L9qjEXtIlOj8ys7yf25p3d2PNApw7rtXlhog1aTXdiI%3D&reserved=0> policy.

Nonexempt Essential Critical Personnel
Nonexempt employees designated as Essential Critical Personnel should report hours worked with the time reporting code Campus Closure Hours Worked - CCRHP and Administrative Leave Taken (ADMHT) on their timesheets with the override code CLOSE.

Below is an example of a USPS nonexempt Essential Critical employee who worked 5 hours on 5/10/24:

Exempt Essential On-site Critical Personnel and Medium Priority Personnel
Exempt employees in pay bands 1 - 10 designated as Essential Critical Personnel or Medium Priority Personnel should report Straight-time Comp Earned - REGCE for hours worked and Administrative Leave Taken (ADMHT) on their timesheets with the override code CLOSE.

Below is an example of a A&P exempt Essential Critical employee who worked 3 hours on 5/10/24:

Nonexempt On-site Medium Priority Personnel
Nonexempt employees designated as Medium Priority Personnel or approved to work more than the required number of hours (typically 32) in the workweek can report Straight-time Comp Earned - REGCE and Administrative Leave Taken (ADMHT). Nonexempt employees not designated as Medium Priority or not approved to work more than the required hours should have their Administrative Leave reduced.

Below is an example of a USPS nonexempt Medium Priority employee approved to work 4 hours during the closure:

What do I do with OPS Employees?
Per University Policy, OPS employees are not eligible to receive Administrative Leave.

  *   OPS Nonexempt Employees (paid for time worked) do not receive Administrative Leave. Only hours worked on May 10 should be reported on the timesheet.
  *   OPS Exempt Employees (Grad Assistants/Adjuncts/OPS Faculty) do not report time on their timesheets. If the employee is funded on May 10, their compensation for the week will not be impacted.

What if I was an employee whose home, personal property, or commute to FSU was impacted by the storm?
Supervisors should be generous in the approval of annual leave for those employees who were personally impacted by Friday's storms. Annual leave is provided to USPS, A&P, and 12-month faculty and, upon approval, may be utilized for purposes relating to storm recovery. In the event an annual leave accruing employee exhausts all available annual leave, they may request Advanced Annual Leave for Natural Disasters<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpolicies.vpfa.fsu.edu%2Fpolicies-and-procedures%2Ffaculty-staff%2Fattendance-and-leave%23E4B&data=05%7C02%7Chrms%40lists.fsu.edu%7Cb3a608ec0ca94838519308dc73753a52%7Ca36450ebdb0642a78d1b026719f701e3%7C0%7C0%7C638512194533174206%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=DaMEpQeeXHi%2FqUxVzebXzQiRpmL%2BoHS5Laf1FhJPgII%3D&reserved=0>.

Other Time Reporting Examples

Overtime
If a nonexempt employee works more than 40 hours during the workweek, they may be eligible for Overtime Payment or OT Comp Earned.

Below is an example of a nonexempt employee who physically worked a total of 46 hours for the workweek. Specifically, they worked 6 hours on Saturday and 10 hours Monday - Thursday. Time Administration will convert the 6 hours to Overtime Pay. Regular hours worked over the required workweek hours (typically 32) will need to be reported as Straight-time Comp Earned - REGCE.
