All regular full-time employees earn sick leave at the rate of eight hours per month or fraction of a month of employment. Sick leave earned but not taken in one fiscal year shall be carried forward to the next fiscal year without limit.
Employees can obtain their vacation and sick leave accrual balances from their monthly statement of earnings or pay stub. Each employee is responsible for bringing alleged discrepancies to the attention of the Human Resources Office for review and correction if necessary.
Longevity Pay is provided for employees who are full-time state employees on the first workday of the month, are not on leave without pay on the first workday of the month, and have at least three years of lifetime service credit accrued by the last day of the preceding month.
