What do we have now?

Once you are hired for a PSU position:

  • You must be employed for 6 months to be eligible to use paid time from the Sick Leave Bank (SLB = our collective pool of extra sick time if needed), and at 6 months, you can receive 8 weeks of SLB parental leave.
  • You must be employed for 12 months to be eligible for the full amount of SLB parental leave (26 weeks).
