 Dear SFUSD Employees,

This message is for classified employees who are represented by UESF and SEIU. If you are not in that category, this message does not apply to you and you do not have to read further.

We are sending a friendly reminder to inform you that the Red Rover system is available for you to submit your floating holiday and/or vacation requests for the upcoming winter break.

Employees MUST SUBMIT their requests ahead of time as the system will not allow you to enter a request after the date. Those who do not submit their absences ahead of time and try to submit a request after the dates have passed will not be honored.

Please ensure that absences are submitted only for your non-working day(s) using Vacation, Comp Time, or Floating Holiday leave.

Non-working days:

  • December 22-January 2
    • Applies to School-Term Paraeducators, School-Term TK-12 Clerks, and School-Term Student Nutrition employees
    • Applies to EED Paraeducators

To enter your absence:

  1. Log into Red Rover.
  2. Click Create Absence from the left-hand side.
  3. Click the date(s) you’re requesting to use vacation and/or floating holiday leave.
  4. Select “Vacation” or “Floating Holidays” from the Reason drop-down menu.
  5. Enter your start and end time.
  6. Click “CREATE” to save and submit your request.

Note: The event type will be displayed as “Teacher work day.” Please ignore this label and rest assured that the correct leave type will be deducted, and your pay will be accurate.

January 7 Pay Stub

A separate line item will be displayed for the non-working days, and the amount shown will be a combination of your regular pay, FWEA, and Longevity (if applicable).

For example, if you requested December 22 (1 day) of vacation time for your non-working day, your pay stub will display “Vacation” with an amount of $340.64. For illustrative purposes here (not displayed on your pay stub), the amount is broken down as follows:

  • Regular Pay Hourly Rate: $39.12
  • Longevity: $1.56
  • FWEA Hourly Rate: $1.90
  • Total Hourly Rate: $42.58 * 8 hours vacation submitted for payment
  • Total Vacation Paid: $340.64

Need help?

If you encounter any issues in Red Rover, please submit a help ticket with the subject line “Classified Break Period Vacation/Floating Holiday Time Use.” This will ensure your request is sent to the right team and resolved as quickly as possible.

Thank you for your commitment, dedication and service to our students and families of San Francisco. Have a wonderful holiday season.

 

Sincerely,

Apolinar Quesada
