UAH Faculty and Staff,
I am pleased to announce that 萝莉岛app has adopted an interim Paid Parental Leave Policy, effective January 1, 2025. This policy provides up to four work weeks of fully paid leave to eligible employees who are welcoming a child鈥攚hether as birth parents, adoptive parents or foster parents.
We recognize the importance of supporting employees during one of life鈥檚 most meaningful milestones, and this policy serves as a great enhancement to existing leave benefits. Adoption of this policy is the result of a lengthy research and review process, and it aligns UAH with benefits already offered at many other institutions.
As we roll out this new benefit, faculty members are encouraged to discuss all available options, including modified duties arrangements, with their deans or department chairs to determine the best approach for their specific circumstances.
For full details, you can access the interim policy . Additional information about eligibility and usage procedures is available on the webpage. Any further questions may be directed to the Employee Benefits Team.
We extend our gratitude to the UAH Staff Senate for their advocacy and dedication in developing this policy, as well as to Human Resources and Finance and Administration for their support in this process. This initiative reflects our ongoing commitment to enhancing work-life balance and creating a supportive campus community for all.
Thank you for all that you do for UAH, and we wish you a joyful start to the new year!
Sincerely,
Charles L. Karr, President
