IMPORTANT NOTICES

Requests for Reasonable Job-Related Accommodations

To begin the process to request a reasonable job-related accommodation, you will need two pieces of information.

1. Employee's request for the job-related accommodation  - Please submit your own request here.

2. Medical information from a treating physician (or medical provider) as it relates to the request. 

Once your request has been submitted and the medical information received, your request will be reviewed. Medical Inquiry forms may be faxed to (972) 599 - 3156, mailed to HR/Benefits (3452 Spur 399, Suite 339, McKinney, Texas 75069) emailed to ccanales@collin.edu. For questions, please contact the Benefits Manager at (972) 599 - 3164 or ccanales@collin.edu.

Sick Time
All benefits-eligible staff, faculty and administrators earn sick time at a rate of 8 hours per month.  Sick time accrue on the last day of the month if employee is in a paid status.

Vacation Time
Benefits-eligible staff, administrators, and eligible faculty, will earn vacation at their applicable monthly rate. The amount of vacation employees receive is based on length of full-time service.  Credit vacation may be used before it is earned, with the exception of supplementing FMLA.  Should unearned vacation be used, your balance in Workday will show a negative balance. If benefits-eligible employment ends and an employee used more vacation than was earned, any used unearned vacation will be deducted from the final paycheck or be owed back to the College if there are insufficient funds.
