Employment Service Credit is earned when employees work at a University of California campus at 50% time or more and excludes periods of leave without pay. For purposes of recognition, the Service Awards program recognizes employees who worked in a staff position at 50% time or more. Employees can verify their Employment Service Credit by logging in to UCPath and navigating to Employee Actions > Leave Balances and selecting 12/31/2023 for the “As of Date”,or 12/23/2023 (employees who are paid biweekly).

 

Please note, retirement service credit is separate and distinct from employment service credit. Please read about the differences here and contact RASC if you have questions related to retirement service credit.
