adjustment credits proportional to the number of additional hours worked

during the 26 pay periods under review. An employee must have worked a

minimum of 13 hours of additional time above the number of hours equated
to his/her payroll percentage to earn an additional one-quarter (1/4) hour of

personal leave. Eligible employees are credited with one-quarter (1/4) hour
of personal leave for every 13 hours of additional time worked during the

26 pay periods under review. For this purpose, time worked includes time
charged to leave credits.

For example, during the period April 1, 2004 through March 31, 2005,
an OSU employee works a total of 235 hours beyond her payroll percentage

and earns 4.50 hours of personal leave adjustment time. (235 hours of
additional time worked divided by 13 hours =18.08 13-hour segments

multiplied by .25 hour credited for each 13 hours of additional time
worked=4.52 hours. Rounding to the nearest quarter hour, the employee

received 4.50 hours of personal leave adjustment credit.)
3. Employees must charge accruals on the basis of the total number of

hours the employee is scheduled to work on a given day beginning with the
first day following the pay period in which the employee is first credited

with additional vacation and sick leave credits under this Program (see
Vacation and Sick Leave (3) above).

4. Personal leave adjustment credits accrued as a result of additional time
worked will be kept in a separate leave category called “Personal Leave

Adjustment.”
5. An employee will have 12 months from the personal leave

adjustment date to use personal leave adjustment credits. Unused leave will

lapse at close of business on the day prior to the personal leave adjustment
date.
6. If the payroll percentage of an eligible employee changes (i.e., 50% to

75%, 50% to 100%, etc.) the employee’s unused regular personal leave

balance will be converted to days based on the new percentage. Personal
leave adjustment time will not be carried forward.
Additional Issues

Agencies or facilities may develop procedures in local labor/management

regarding access during the 60-day recording period, in cases of special
need for leave, to vacation, sick leave and personal leave adjustment credits

earned but not yet recorded.
