ANR 2019-20 winter holiday closure schedule announced

Human Resources has confirmed the 2019-20 winter holiday closure schedule. 

ANR units – including Research and Extension Centers, BOC Kearney, UCCE county offices and the Second Street Building in Davis – will be closed from Tuesday, Dec. 24, 2019, through Wednesday, Jan. 1, 2020, except for essential services. ANR offices will reopen on Thursday, Jan. 2, 2020. The closure schedule will be the same for ANR employees at UCOP.

Winter closure schedule:

Mon, 12/23 – Regular work day 

Tue, 12/24 – UC Holiday 

Wed, 12/25 – UC Holiday 

Thu, 12/26 – Winter Closure 

Fri, 12/27 – Winter Closure

Tue, 12/31 – UC Holiday 

Wed, 1/1/20 – UC Holiday 

Thu, 1/2/20 – Regular work day

Dec. 26, 27 and 30, 2019, will be curtailment (closure) days. Employees will be given the option of using accrued vacation, compensatory time off (CTO), or leave without pay for the curtailment days. In the event an employee has not accumulated a sufficient amount of vacation time before December to cover the three days, arrangements can be made to allow those individuals to borrow against future vacation time. 

Some UCCE county offices and research and extension centers may adjust the closure schedule to accommodate local needs; this is at the discretion of the director and approval by ANR leadership. If you have a question about your local office schedule, please contact your director.
