Employees are reminded that there is a one-year, carry-over limit on accrued vacation time. The “use-it-or-lose-it” date is Dec. 31.
Employees cannot carry over beyond this date more than the number of annual vacation days for which they are currently eligible. If work or medical conditions prohibit the employee from taking their accrued vacation by Dec. 31, the chief administrator of that division can request an extension of one additional year. The chief administrator and the employee must make every effort to schedule and use the accrued vacation in the coming year as additional extensions will not be permitted.
Contact a Human Resources team member or call 210-431-3970 for more information.

As part of the university’s ongoing efforts to protect OLLU’s information and technologies, all employees must complete information security training by Thursday (Nov. 23). Employees who do not complete the training will not have access to the OLLU network (including email, Microsoft Office, etc. ) upon return from the Thanksgiving holiday.
This is a security compliance requirement.
All employees should have received an email from notifications@securityiq-notifications.com. This is a legitimate email and should not be deleted. Follow instructions in the email to complete your training. Employees will receive reminder emails until the training is complete. If you have not received the email, please search your junk email folder or contact the Help Desk.
The training involves a series of videos on a variety of security topics. The videos do not have to be viewed all in one session, but all training must be complete by the deadline.
