There may be times when you are absent from your responsibilities at the University. For example, if you are planning to go on vacation or a maternity, personal, or sabbatical leave, you may have questions about Penn State’s policies and how those policies relate to you. Or, perhaps you have been called to Jury Duty, but do not know how to proceed. Perhaps you are required to be away from work due to injury or illness and wish to learn more about disability benefits and how your leave of absence may affect your employee benefits and employment status. The following web pages will provide information on these questions and many more.
