The State Department of Transportation shall furnish a list to each captive county with the name, position, rate of pay, and length of service of all persons who are presently employed by the State Department of Transportation in the respective captive county. The respective counties may employ personnel not to exceed 75 percent of the employees on the list furnished by the State Department of Transportation for the construction, repair, and maintenance of county roads and bridges in accordance with personnel policy as adopted by the respective counties. The remaining employees now employed by the State Department of Transportation in each said county shall remain an employee of the State Department of Transportation subject to the regular employment practices of said department. All persons employed by each respective county shall be paid at the same rate of pay as was paid by the State Department of Transportation. All present and accumulated obligations due and payable to the present employees as a result of their employment with the State Department of Transportation shall be the obligation of the State of Alabama, including, but not limited to, accumulated sick leave, vacation time, and retirement and any other accumulated benefits earned by the said employees. Payment shall be made to the employees on or before the effective date of this article. Provided, however, that the State Department of Transportation shall pay to the respective county governing body an amount equal to 100 percent of the value of the accumulated sick leave for the account of each employee who transfers to the captive county. Such funds shall be held in trust for the employee and shall be used to pay such employee for approved sick leave. In lieu of the funds being held in trust for future approved sick leave, the employee may elect to accept an amount equal to 50 percent of the value of the then accumulated sick leave in full settlement and payment of his accrued sick leave account. Approved sick leave shall be that leave so designated by any county merit system to which the employee may transfer, or such leave as approved by the county governing body, or the county engineer at the direction of the county governing body.
