406.4 Benefits during Administrative Leave
Benefits coverage, if any, during the administrative leave will be determined by Human Resources, based on the appropriateness of the coverage in individual circumstances. The employee must make arrangements with the Employee Service Center to ensure continuation of coverage.
406.5 Termination
An administrative leave of absence automatically ends and the employee is terminated if he or she accepts other employment elsewhere without prior approval by Human Resources, files for Unemployment Compensation, refuses a job offer from the University deemed appropriate by the Department of Human Resources, is discharged, or resigns.
