Update on Wellbeing Hours

From OHSU: During the most recent contract negotiations, the parties agreed to increase the annual accrual of Well-Being leave hours from 8 (prorated by FTE) to 24 (prorated by FTE), and to temporarily increase the cap on these accruals from 24 hours to 40 hours (until January 2027).

Employees’ original annual accruals were deposited at the beginning of the year, but the additional amounts will not be deposited until Friday, February 27, 2026. In the meantime, employees have the option to use the additional Well-Being hours in advance (this week or next). Any resulting temporary negative Well-Being leave balance will be corrected once the deposit occurs.
