Frequently Asked Questions
If I don’t use all of my vacation time, will it roll over into the next fiscal year?
Employees should attempt to use all vacation time due them within the contracted period of service. If, at the end of the year, the employee has not used the vacation allowance earned, the unused time can be carried over to the next fiscal year. However, no employee may accrue or carry over more than one year’s vacation allowance in addition to the current year’s allowance. {Example: If George doesn’t use his full vacation allotment in the year earned, he MUST use those days during the next 12 months or lose them.}
Can I use my sick time to care for my child?
Yes, the sick leave benefit may be used for the employee’s illness or to care for an ill or injured member in the immediate family of the employee or spouse.
What can I use my personal days for?
Personal days are available for personal, legal, religious or family matters. Personal days are not intended to be used to extend a holiday weekend, school break (including summer break), or employee vacation.
