Guidelines Regarding Annual Leave Accrual Determination

  1. The initial date of employment for individuals hired on a temporary, part-time schedule, working 20-39 hours per week will be considered in determining the employee’s annual leave accrual step, albeit actual leave benefits begin four months following the initial date of employment.
  2. Annual leave accrual increases will be effective September 1 for all eligible employees, regardless of the initial month of employment. An employee must have worked at least nine months during the current leave year to qualify for an accrual increase.
  3. All references to an employee’s leave anniversary month and year within college records apply only to the date that the employee was granted leave benefits. This date does not necessarily coincide with the date upon which an employee is scheduled for an annual leave accrual increase. Accrual increases go into effect as of September 1.
  4. The President has final authority concerning annual leave accrual issues.
