Vacation days accrue each pay period as shown in the table above. Paid vacation may be taken <br /> as soon as it is accrued. Accrual rates change, as applicable, on an employee's anniversary date. <br /> Example: If an employee's start date was July 1, 2016, the new accrual rate would start July 1, <br /> 2019. <br /> Unused vacation days may be carried over from year-to-year, but only to a limited extent, as <br /> follows. Unused vacation carryover will be limited to the number of hours accrued during the <br /> previous year. Accrued vacation days beyond the carryover limit are lost. For example, if an <br /> employee with 2 years of service has accrued but not used 15 vacation days by the end of the pay <br /> period containing his or her anniversary date, he or she will only be permitted to carryover 10 <br /> days to the next year. <br /> Paid vacation may not be used for the purpose of extending an employee's active employment <br /> with the Utilities or for retaining a full-time equivalency percentage that is not based on an <br /> employee's actual planned and scheduled working time. <br /> Employees who voluntarily end their employment and who give the Utilities proper (generally at <br /> least two-weeks) notice shall be paid out for earned but unused vacation time as of the date of <br /> separation, provided they sign and do not rescind an agreement releasing claims arising out of <br /> their employment, in a form prescribed by the Utilities. Employees involuntarily terminated by <br /> the Utilities for any reason other than lack of work shall not be paid out any unused vacation <br /> time. <br /> Employees who retire (immediately eligible to claim their pension) and who give the Utilities <br /> proper (generally at least two-weeks) notice shall have 100% of unused vacation time converted <br /> into cash and deposited into their Post Employment Health Care Savings account, provided they <br /> sign and do not rescind an agreement releasing claims arising out of their employment, in a form <br /> prescribed by the Utilities. <br /> The Electric Superintendent and Assistant Electric Superintendent accrue paid vacation at the <br /> rate set forth above and are generally subject to this Vacation policy; but they each shall also <br /> receive an additional 40 hours of paid vacation per year, the balance of which will be paid out at <br /> their respective then-current base rates of pay if not used by the end of the year. No such balance <br /> may be carried over from year to year. <br /> 37. PAID SICK LEAVE <br /> Regular full-time employees accrue sick leave at the rate of 3.69 hours per pay period <br /> (approximately 8 hours per month). Regular part-time employees accrue sick leave pro rata <br /> based on the full-time accrual rate. Temporary and seasonal employees are not eligible for sick <br /> leave. <br /> Sick leave may be used for illness and for visits to a heath care provider (including any visit that <br /> would qualify for reimbursement under IRS Flexible Health Care Spending Accounts guidelines, <br /> which include, for example, medical doctors, dentists and optometrists). Sick leave may be used <br /> to cover illness or visits of the employee or the employee's child or another"covered relative" as <br /> AA <br />
