The Division of Human Resources is pleased to announce that CSU employees will again receive three well-being days during Fall Break.
For 2024, three well-being days will be observed during Fall Break in addition to the designated holidays of Nov. 28 and 29. This will give faculty and staff without essential duties the entire week off. The well-being days are Nov. 25 through Nov. 27.
These days are designed to provide individual employees time to unplug from work and recharge. Taking time off is crucial for maintaining a healthy work-life integration and we are happy to provide this opportunity to our employees.
In the rare case that an employee cannot take well-being days during this period, supervisors are asked to work with the employee to schedule the same number of well-being days between July 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025. For more information, please see these frequently asked questions on the Human Resources website.
