POL 5.060 Vacation Leave
FULL-TIME CLASSIFIED AND ADMINISTRATIVE PERSONNEL
ADMINISTRATIVE PERSONNEL
Administrative personnel shall be granted twenty-four (24) working days vacation, with pay, each year. This vacation should be taken during the term of the contract. If the entire vacation time is not taken during the contractual year, the remaining portion may be taken during the following fiscal year provided the administrator has a signed contract in effect for that year.
CLASSIFIED PERSONNEL
Classified employees receive vacation pay in accordance with the schedule below. Full-time employees on a limited schedule and new full-time employees will accrue vacation time on a pro-rated basis based on the number of weeks worked during the fiscal year. Vacation time earned during the current fiscal year will not be available for use until the beginning of the next fiscal year (July 1) and must be taken within eighteen months (by December 31) of the following fiscal year. Vacation time is not cumulative beyond December 31, unless under extenuating circumstances the President has granted an extension. If possible, vacations are taken at a time mutually agreeable to the college and the employee.

- Vacation days earned during the previous fiscal year are granted on July 1 each year. The number of vacation days provided in a given year is determined by the number of full years of service as of July 1 each year. Full-time employees on a limited schedule and new employees are eligible for vacation time earned on a pro-rated basis.
- During the fiscal year in which the employee experiences the five and ten year anniversary date, the employee will be awarded the corresponding increase in vacation days on a prorated basis.
- Employees will receive their current base rate of pay during vacation. Additional pay cannot be received by an employee in lieu of using vacation time.
- Vacation days may be taken in advance only in extenuating circumstances and with approval of the immediate supervisor, the appropriate dean, and the vice president of operations. If an employee takes vacation days prior to the time they are earned, the employee must reimburse the college for vacation pay if he or she leaves the college before the vacation days are earned.
