Frequently Asked Questions

A Length of Service Award date recognizes continuous UWM service in a creditable appointment.

The date is independent of years of service for retirement computations and State seniority date.

The date reflects ONLY UWM creditable service.

Creditable service/appointments include:

All Faculty appointments, regardless of appointment percentage
All University Staff Permanent and Project appointments, regardless of appointment percentage
All On-Going Academic Staff Appointments, regardless of appointment percentage
All Fixed-Term Academic Staff Appointments over 50% time
All Limited Appointee appointments, regardless of appointment percentage.

In the case of interrupted service, the award dates will start over with the most recent appointment start date. An award date may be adjusted to include all creditable UWM service if requested by the employee through the HR Business Partner (https://uwm.edu/hr/client-group-assignments/).

Approved leave of absence will not count against an employee’s date.

Ultimately, Length of Service dates are determined/calculated to err in favor of the employee.

Academic, University Staff, Limited Appointees and Faculty award years are based on the calendar year January 1st through December 31st (in 2021, Faculty award dates were shifted from Fiscal Year to Calendar Year). Awards are provided for the following years of service by employee category:

Faculty	5	10	15	20	25	30	35	40	45	50
Academic Staff	5	10	15	20	25	30	35	40	45	50
Limited Appointees	5	10	15	20	25	30	35	40	45	50
University Staff	5	10	15	20	25	30	35	40	45	50

Starting in 2024, ALL employee categories became eligible for a 5-year award. This change is effective for staff that meet the criteria in 2024 and was implemented based on campus feedback that the award criteria be more inclusive and recognize all employment categories at five years.

For employees who met the five-year criteria prior to 2024, retrospective award certificates can be provided if specifically requested by the employee through the HR Business Partner (https://uwm.edu/hr/client-group-assignments/).
