1 Page 3 <br /> -On January 31, 1993, 86 employees had Vacation <br /> Leave balances over 240 hours. A total of <br /> 1,696 hours was cancelled in accordance with <br /> the policy. The amounts cancelled ranged from <br /> six minutes to 206 hours. Over half of the <br /> employees had less than 10 hours. <br /> -As of November 30, 1993, 102 employees had <br /> Vacation Leave balances over 240 hours. It is <br /> anticipated that this number will be lower as <br /> of January 31 because of employees using the <br /> leave during the December - January period. <br /> Other Impacts <br /> Implementing the change will have several impacts: <br /> -In the circumstance where the employee is not <br /> able to schedule the leave for use as Vacation <br /> because of work requirements, the leave will <br /> not be lost to the employee. Instead it may be <br /> used for retirement service credit as <br /> authorized by the system or used as Sick Leave, <br /> if needed. <br /> -In other circumstances the employee may elect <br /> not to use all earned Vacation Leave because of <br /> the desire to have it become available as <br /> retirement service credit. <br /> -Because of the additional option of <br /> converting leave, employees and departments <br /> will have more flexibility in scheduling <br /> leave, particularly at the end of the year. <br /> RECOIMNDATION: The Manager recommends the Board: <br /> -Adopt the Attachment 1 Resolution and <br /> authorize the Chair to sign it. <br /> -Adopt the Attachment 2 Vacation Leave and Sick <br /> Leave policy revisions to the Personnel Ordinance <br /> effective January 31, 1994. <br />
