Leaves of Absence

The University of Cincinnati follows standard processes for medical, paid parental leave (PPL), personal, child-rearing, FMLA and non-FMLA. Generally, the leaves listed above involve medical or proof of birth or adoption documentation.  The pertinent articles in the UC/AAUP Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) are Articles 17 and 19.  This overview also outlines behind–the-scenes processing not directly the responsibility of the AUH, but which may serve to enlighten the AUH of the touch points throughout the leave process.

Other types of leaves such as military, academic, professional, and emergency/special are available to faculty but do not involve medical or proof of birth or adoption documentation.  Thus, they are outside the scope of this outline.  Questions on these types of leaves can be sent to acadpers@ucmail.uc.edu.
