Major
medical leave is earned by all employees who work one-half time or more,
except student employees, intermittent employees, temporary employees, and rehired retirees.
-
Leave is
earned after one month of continuous service, and accrues based on
employment status and the length of time you have been employed.
-
Major
medical leave may be used for illness or injury of an employee or member
of the employee’s immediate family.

Mississippi law requires that state employees use Personal Leave for
the first eight hours (or day) of absence due to illness; however,
nine-month faculty do not earn personal leave with pay and will take the
first eight hours of absence due to illness from their accrued major medical
leave.
