LEAVES OF ABSENCE

The UAB Sick Time Donation program provides a source of paid leave for eligible UAB employees who have exhausted their available accrued benefit time as a result of significant illness or injury. In addition to direct, voluntary donations, non-specific donations can be made to the Sick Time Donation Pool, which is managed by UAB Human Resources. See the UAB Sick Time Donation Policy for more details.

Sick time donations or requests from UAB, UAB Hospital and LLC employees should be submitted via the Sick Time Donation App below. For questions or clarifications, email leave@uab.edu or call 205-934-1920.
