UPDATE: The availability of the new Pay for Family Care and Bonding (PFCB) codes in HBS is delayed until July 14. Human Resources and Payroll will coordinate to manually enter the PFCB earnings in UCPath for the biweekly pay period ending July 10. Employees and timesheet approvers should follow these steps for the pay period ending July 10:
- Leave the dates of PFCB usage blank on the employee’s HBS timesheet when submitted/approved.
- Once the PFCB codes are available in HBS, a history timesheet will be completed by Payroll to populate the PFCB usage.
New HBS Pay Codes are now available to record time taken as part of the Pay for Family Care and Bonding (PFCB) program. The HBS PFCB pay codes should only be selected on timesheets when authorized by Human Resources.
- HR Shared Services will add PFCB pay codes to HBS timesheets on behalf of campus employees.
- The Health HR Leave Team will provide UCSF Health managers instructions for adding PFCB pay codes to HBS timesheets on behalf of UCSF Health employees.
