Re: | Reduced Vacation Payout for PM and Confidentials |
Overview: When to use
Effective July 1, 2013, the University reduced the payment that is provided to employees (PM / Confidentials) who, when they cease employment, have accumulated (that is, earned but not taken) approved vacation above their regular annual entitlement.
The reduction will be as follows:
- for those with 3 weeks annual vacation entitlement, a reduction of 4 days
- for those with 4 weeks annual vacation entitlement, a reduction of 5 days
- for those with 5 weeks annual vacation entitlement, a reduction of 6 days

Step 3
The department calculates the number days that need to be reduced.
Step 4
The department sends an email to hris.help@utoronto.ca with:

- expected balance of vacation days
Step 5
The department processes the vacation payout once confirmation of the reduction of days is received.
