Resignation Procedure (resignation form)
K.A.R. 1-11-1. Resignation. (a) An employee wishing to resign in good standing shall file with the appointing authority, at least two weeks before the employee's last day at work, a written resignation stating the date it will become effective and the reasons for leaving. If the employee fails to give the required notice, as provided above, the appointing authority may have a statement concerning such failure to notify inserted in the employee's official personnel record. An agency may consider as grounds for refusal to employ a person the fact that the person did not give the required notice when the person resigned from earlier employment with the state. (b) With the approval of the appointing authority, an employee may withdraw a resignation. (c) An unauthorized absence from work for a period of five consecutive working days, and for which the employee does not provide a satisfactory explanation, may be considered by the appointing authority as abandonment of the job and a presumed resignation. Before terminating an employee as a presumed resignation, the appointing authority shall make a reasonable effort to obtain a satisfactory explanation from the employee, and summary of the steps taken to try to obtain the explanation from the employee shall be submitted to the director when the presumed resignation is processed.
1. Based on dates in resignation letter, Human Resources-Wichita will initiate HRIS form
HRIS (ref #73-793-4) Forms automatically take care of any payouts due such as vacation, comp time and holiday comp time for employees separating from KU, in addition, sick pay for qualified retirees. For more information on retirement, click here.
Vacation
You will receive your vacation payout on your last check (via direct deposit if you have direct deposit) if the paperwork has been initiated promptly. Any payouts done after the last paycheck for hours worked will not be direct deposited and forwarded to the employee's department for distribution. (Please be sure that Human Resources has your most recent address before leaving for W-2 purposes.)
Classified employees will be paid for all vacation hours accumulated up to the maximum limit based on the years of service. Unclassified employees will be paid for all vacation accumulated up to 176 hours.
Sick Leave (Not paid out)
Sick Leave will not be paid out when leaving the institution. Upon reinstatement, each employee who separates from state service, may receive the entire portion of their sick leave if reinstatement occurs within 364 days (one year minus one day) from the effective date of leaving state employment.
Shared Leave
Donations must be made in full hour increments. Classified employees donating annual (vacation) leave must have at least 80 hours of annual leave after the donation is made. All employees donating sick leave must have at least 480 hours of sick leave after the donation is made. Unclassified and Unclassified Health Care employees may only donate 80 hours of sick leave in a fiscal year and may not donate annual (vacation) hours.
