Voluntary Reduction in Work Schedule

The Voluntary Reduction in Work Schedule (VRWS) is a long-standing New York State program which can provide one way in which UUP and CSEA affiliated employees and Management/Confidential employees can help reduce costs to SUNY Delhi. The VRWS is a program that allows employees to voluntarily trade income for time off.

Eligibility:

This program is available to annual-salaried UUP and CSEA affiliated employees and Management/Confidential employees. The following eligibility criteria shall apply:

1. Employees are required to be employed to work on a full-time annual salaried basis for a minimum of one biweekly payroll period immediately prior to the time of entry into the VRWS Program.
2. Employees must remain in a full-time annual salaried position during the term of the VRWS agreement.
3. Employees must have one continuous year of State service on a qualifying schedule (any schedule which entitled the employee to earn leave credits, not necessarily a full-time schedule).

If you are interested in the VRWS program, use the VRWS Application (pdf) to designate your preferred work schedule adjustments.
