Leave Statement and Leave Report
Background: Leave Statements and Leave Reports were sent to the portal beginning in May of 2008. Paper copies are also mailed to your campus address. Access to the leave statement, leave report, and missing leave reports is available online at my.wisc.edu.
How do I access my leave information online?
To access your leave statement, report, and missing leave reports online:
- Log on to My UW-Madison portal (MY.WISC.EDU) with your NetID and password.
- If you have not previously used the portal, click Activate your NetID to gain access.
- Click the Work Record tab.

When will my leave statement and report be posted to the My UW-Madison portal?
Leave statements and reports will be available at least two days before the pay date.
How long will my leave statements and reports be available in the portal?
For current employees, statements and reports are available online for 2 years.
For terminated employees, access to the portal continues for 24 months after your termination date.
Do I need to print the leave statement and leave report from the portal?
You will also receive a paper copy of each at your campus address. Either the paper copy or the online copy of the report must be printed, completed, signed and returned to your supervisor/appointing authority. It is not necessary to print the statement since the information is stored for 2 years online.
Do I need to print the missing leave report from the portal?
Yes, you must print missing leave reports, sign, date, and return to approving authority as soon as possible.
How secure is the information displayed in the My UW-Madison portal?
Access to the My UW-Madison portal is secured according to the best practices for web security. The NetID and password are conveyed using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and the password is encrypted before transmission over the Internet. After typing your NetID and your password (which is encrypted on the login page and shows up only as dots or asterisks) at the login page of the My UW-Madison portal my.wisc.edu and hitting 'login', the user is automatically directed to a secure login processing page. The NetID and password are not stored on the login page of the My UW-Madison portal but are passed through to the secure page and authentication is checked to ensure the NetID and password are valid. Additional information about My UW-Madison, including its security, can be found by clicking the 'About My UW-Madison' link on the login page. The largest threat to the security of the data comes from users voluntarily sharing their NetID and password with others.
