An employee may not carry over more than 600 hours of Personal Leave from one year <br />to the next unless a written request has been submitted to and approved by the City <br />Administrator prior to December 15 of each year. Such a waiver may be considered in <br />the event of a special circumstance. <br /> <br />d. An employee’s anniversary date will be used to determine an employee’s duration of <br />employment. Leave will be credited according to the duration of employment on the <br />last day of the pay period as follows: <br /> <br />e. No Personal Leave shall be credited to an employee for periods when the employee has <br />been on a lay-off or leave of absence without pay. <br /> <br />f. Employees who are rehired after terminating City employment will not receive credit for <br />their prior service unless specifically negotiated at the time of hire. <br /> <br />g. An employee will not earn any Personal Leave for any pay period unless they are <br />employed by the City on the last scheduled workday of the pay period. Further, Personal <br />Leave will stop accruing as of the effective date of termination. <br /> <br />h. An employee working reduced hours will have their Personal Leave prorated for time <br />worked during that pay period. <br /> <br />i. Personal Leave cannot be converted into cash payments except as outlined in Section 14- <br />Separation of Service. <br /> <br />Depending upon an employee’s situation, more than one form of leave may apply during the <br />same period of time (e.g., the Family and Medical Leave Act is likely to apply during a workers’ <br />compensation absence). An employee will need to meet the requirements of each form of leave <br />separately. Leave requests will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. <br /> <br />Except as otherwise stated, all paid time off, taken under any of the City’s leave programs, must <br />be taken consecutively, with no intervening unpaid leave. The City will provide employees with <br />time away from work as required by state or federal statutes, if there are requirements for such <br />time off that are not described in the personnel policies. <br /> <br />Personal Leave hours may be used under the following guidelines. <br /> <br />Duration of Employment Hours earned Annually Hours earned biweekly <br />0 - 1 year 144 5.54 after six months <br />Over 1 year – 5 years 144 5.54 <br />Over 5 years – 10 years 184 7.08 <br />Over 10 years to 15 years 208 8.00 <br />Over 15 years 240 9.23
