Vacation Days: Use Them or Lose Them The Human Resources office reminds all Health Sciences employees that on July 1 the new fiscal/vacation year begins, and all unused vacation days from fiscal ’98 will be forfeited. The office has asked all Health Sciences vice presidents, deans, chairpersons, directors of centers and institutes, and administrators to remind their employees that the vacation days they accrued through June 30, 1998 (the last day of fiscal ‘98), must be taken by June 30, 1999.
