in order to remain eligible. The employee may be on paid or unpaid leave

from a qualifying schedule.

The additional time worked cannot be counted to qualify an otherwise
ineligible employee to earn leave credits under the Attendance Rules. Leave

credits can be granted for additional time worked only as described in this
Program to part-time annual salaried employees already eligible to earn

leave credits under the Attendance Rules for their work schedule equated to
their payroll percentage.

For example, an employee with a payroll percentage of 40% and
corresponding work schedule of four days per pay period cannot

participate in the Program even though the employee works additional time
for a fifth day each pay period because the employee’s work schedule based

on his/her payroll percentage is not a qualifying schedule. On the other hand,
an employee with a payroll percentage of 50% earns leave credits under the

Attendance Rules based on the work schedule corresponding to his/her
payroll percentage and is eligible to be granted vacation, sick leave and

personal leave adjustment credits for additional time worked beyond his/her
50% schedule under this Program.

Participating employees are not eligible to be credited under this Program
for additional hours worked in excess of the normal 37.5 or 40-hour

workweek.
Vacation and Sick Leave

1. Agencies must review the additional time worked by eligible part-time
annual salaried employees twice a year, for pay-rolls 1-13 and for payrolls

14-26. Additional vacation and sick leave will be credited within 60 days

after the end of payroll period 13 and within 60 days after the end of payroll
period 26.
The first crediting of additional vacation and sick leave occurred within a

60-day recording period following pay period 13 of fiscal year 2000-2001.

The provisions regarding the special rate for calculating vacation
adjustment credits for employees who earn vacation at the 20-day rate apply
to additional hours worked beginning in pay period 1 of fiscal year 2004-

2005. The first crediting at this rate will occur within a 60-day period

following the end of pay period 13 of fiscal year 2004-2005.
2. Agencies must credit eligible employees with vacation and sick leave

adjustment credits proportional to the additional hours worked during the 13
pay periods under review.
