D. Absence on sick leave for a period in excess of fifteen (15) consecutive calendar <br /> days shall not be considered as service for vacation accrual purposes. <br /> E. Computation of Vacation. <br /> 1. If a holiday listed in Article 9 occurs during an employee's vacation, <br /> vacation hours will not be deducted. For employees who choose to earn <br /> holiday in lieu pay, they are already being paid for the holiday. If an <br /> employee qualifies for sick leave while on vacation, the time will be <br /> deducted from sick leave, not vacation. <br /> 2. With the exception of military leave, an employee who has a break in <br /> service of one (1) year or less will continue to accrue vacation per Section <br /> 10.2(A). If an employee has a break in service of one(1)year or more,they <br /> shall be considered a first year employee for purposes of accruing vacation. <br /> F. Vacation Buv-Back. By December 15 of each year, employees may make an <br /> irrevocable election to cash out up to sixty (60) hours (one hundred twenty (120) <br /> hours if they used eighty (80) hours in the calendar year they are making the <br /> election) of vacation which they can accrue per year which will be earned in the <br /> following calendar year at the employee's base rate of pay. In the following year, <br /> the employee can receive the cash for the vacation they irrevocably elected to cash <br /> out in either two (2) separate increments of up to thirty(30)hours(sixty(60)hours <br /> if they if they used eighty (80) hours in the calendar year they are making the <br /> election) hours or one (1) increment of up sixty (60) hours (one hundred twenty <br /> (120) hours if they if they used eighty (80) hours in the calendar year they are <br /> making the election)they can accrue in a year. <br /> The employee would be paid one-half of what they irrevocably elect to cash out <br /> hours on both the second pay day in July and the first pay day in December or the <br /> employee can elect to be paid sixty (60) hours (one hundred twenty (120) hours if <br /> they if they used eighty(80)hours in the calendar year they are making the election) <br /> on the first pay day in December. However, if the employee's vacation balance is <br /> less than the amount the employee elected to cash out (in the prior calendar year) <br /> the employee will receive cash for the amount of vacation the employee has <br /> accrued at the time of the cash out. <br /> If an employee makes an irrevocable election to cash out vacation in the following <br /> calendar year and uses vacation in that subsequent year,the vacation used will come <br /> from vacation the employee had earned prior to January 1 of the year the employee <br /> has elected to cash out vacation. This is to ensure that assuming an employee had <br /> a vacation balance prior to January 1,the vacation used will not result in a reduction <br /> in the amount of vacation the employee will be eligible to cash out. <br /> 37 <br />
