HOLIDAYS & WINTER SEASON DAYS

❖ In addition to vacation time, sick time and paid parental leave, UC offers 11 paid holidays, plus winter season days, annually. ❖ Winter season days are the non-holiday workdays between Christmas and New Year’s Day. ❖ When UC is closed for holidays, UCP providers are expected to follow the UC Health holiday schedule and report to work unless time off has been previously scheduled and approved. ❖ If a clinic is open, providers that are required to work to staff a clinic will receive comp time. Those who do not work will not receive comp time. If the department requires inpatient providers to work on a UC holiday, the department may provide a comp day as well. ❖ Check with your department administrator regarding the use of holidays and winter season days in your department.
