§443. Pool leave account; participation; use
A. Any full-time employee of an employing agency may request voluntarily, in
writing, that a specified number of hours of his accrued annual, sick, or compensatory leave
or any combination thereof be transferred from his annual, sick, or compensatory leave
account to a pool account the agency establishes to distribute leave pursuant to the provisions
of this Part.
B. No employee with less than fifteen days in his personal sick leave account may
transfer any leave to the pool account. Any employee with more than fifteen days in his sick
leave account may transfer sick leave to the pool account provided he retains a minimum of
fifteen days in his own sick leave account.
C. Annual, sick, or compensatory leave transferred under this Part may be substituted
retroactively for periods of leave without pay or used to liquidate an indebtedness for
advanced annual, sick, or compensatory leave granted.
D. A leave recipient may use annual, sick, or compensatory leave from the pool
account in the same manner as if the recipient had accrued the leave in the manner provided
by law, rule, regulation, or policy.
E. Participating employees shall not be eligible to use transferred leave from the pool
account until all personally accrued annual, sick, and compensatory leave has been used.
F. Transferred annual, sick, or compensatory leave from the pool account remaining
to the credit of a leave recipient when his employment terminates shall not be transferred to
another employee, included in a lump-sum payment for accrued leave, or included in the total
service for retirement computation.
