Parental/Adoption Leave

Parental leave is a paid leave, associated with the birth of an employee's own child or the placement of a child with the employee in connection with adoption or foster care. This type of absence is not charged against the employee's leave credits, and the number of paid days received is based on employee category.
Such leave runs concurrently with any other related leaves for which the employee is eligible. The chart below is a reference that can be used to determine the amount of paid parental leave an employee is entitled to under this program. Refer to the appropriate Collective Bargaining Agreement for additional details.
Represented and non-represented employees deemed eligible for Parental Leave are covered by this benefit from the date of hire.

Additional Flexibility

The CSU recognizes that the nature of work carried out by faculty unit employees makes leaves of less than one (1) academic term challenging to accommodate. To minimize disruptions of the academic program and impacts on students, the following options are available.

  1. Leave sharing. When a faculty unit employee is eligible for a parental leave and their spouse or partner is also a faculty unit employee, one spouse/partner may donate all or part of their parental leave to the other spouse or partner with the approval of the appropriate administrator(s).
  2. A workload reduction of at least sixty percent (60%). At least nine weighted teaching (WTUs) for a full-time faculty member for one semester.
