Permanent Reduction in Workload. A faculty member with tenure or job security may request a permanent reduction in workload, with prorated reduction in salary. After consulting with the respective department and/or school, the Library or the Eye Research Institute, Oakland may grant such a request. Appropriate work arrangements are to be determined by Oakland and the faculty member prior to granting the request. Once granted a workload reduction, a faculty member shall have no right to return to full-time status or to change the percent of time worked, unless Oakland specifically agrees to a change. A faculty member on permanent workload reduction shall be eligible for only those benefits, including participation in retirement options, agreed to by Oakland and the faculty member at the time the workload reduction is approved. Years of service for sabbatical eligibility purposes shall not accrue during the period of reduced workload.
