How Do I Estimate My Sick Leave Credit?
Example: Let’s assume you have a 9 month.*
academic year contract and a salary of
$54,000. You have accumulated 1900
hours of sick leave over your 25 year
career at the University.
1. Divide your contract salary by 9.
2. Divide the result by 174.
$6,000 / 174 = $34.48/hour
3. Multiply by sick leave credits.
Note: If you have 15 or more years of UW or State service you may also receive additional credits under the Supplemental Sick Leave Credit Program.
* Individual on 12 month contracts divide by 12 on step 1
