Vacation Day
Full-time administrative employees will normally receive twelve (12) days
of paid vacation during their first five fiscal years of employment,
fifteen (15) days during the sixth through tenth years, eighteen (18)
days during the eleventh through fifteenth years, and twenty (20) days
after fifteen years. Employees may receive credit for prior work
experience with the approval of the President or Vice President for
Finance and Management.
Vacation time will be prorated for employees who work less than
twelve (12) months in a fiscal year or less than eight (8) hours per
day.
The total amount of vacation to which an employee is entitled for a
fiscal year is received in advance at the beginning of each fiscal
year and must be used by the end of the fiscal year.
Vacations may not be taken in increments of less than one-half
(1/2) day.
An employee's supervisor will determine when vacations may be
taken, and may allow the employee to use vacation time as soon as it
is received.
An employee who leaves the college, and then returns to work within
five (5) years, will receive credit for prior employment with the
college.
