Deferring Tenure Consideration

A staff member who has taken an authorized leave (e.g., parental leave, disability leave, leave of absence) of three months or more prior to their mandatory year of tenure consideration may elect to defer their year of tenure consideration. To do so, staff members must inform the Provost and Executive Vice-President (Academic) via an email to the academic.personnel [at] mcgill.ca (Academic Personnel Office) by June 1^st of their year of mandatory tenure consideration. Only two deferrals are permitted per staff member. All leaves relating to the same event (e.g., a maternity leave and extended parental leave) are treated as a single authorized leave.
