Sick-to-Service (S2S) Hours Program

Purpose
The Sick-to-Service (S2S) program was designed to give employees an option to utilize banked sick hours for service related projects and activities.

Program Details

  • This program is effective January 1, 2017, updated 10/2/19. 
  • Employees who maintain a balance of 240 hours (six weeks) of sick leave are eligible to apply to transfer up to 40 hours (five days) of sick leave hours to S2S service hours each calendar year. 
  • S2S hours can be used for supervisor approved activities and functions. Please see list below for example organizations that are approved for S2S.
  • Each department is given the flexibility to establish “blackout” dates during their office's busy season in which S2S could not be used.
  • Employees will need to submit a Request for Transfer Sick to Service (S2S) Hours for approval at least 14 days in advance to their direct supervisor. 
  • If approved, employees will mark their service hours as sick leave on the appropriate time sheet or leave report.
  • Employees do not have the option to donate service hours to a bank or individual.
