Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 38, September 20, 2024
At the discretion of the appointing power, non-represented employees as defined in section 599.619 of these regulations will be permitted to transfer eligible leave credits to an employee when a natural disaster occurs.
(a) The following conditions shall apply:
(b) Eligible leave credits may be donated for catastrophic leave for a natural disaster:
(c) If the transfer of eligible leave credits is approved by the agency's director or designee, any non-represented employee in that agency may, upon written notice to the personnel office, donate eligible leave credits at a minimum of one hour. Donations thereafter must be in whole hour increments. Donations will be reflected as an hour-for-hour deduction from the leave balance of the donating employee. When transferring eligible leave credits, the agency should assure that only credits that may be needed are transferred. A non-represented employee may donate eligible leave credits to a represented employee. A non-represented employee who is designated managerial as defined in Government Code section 3513(e) or supervisory as defined in Government Code section 3513(g) may not receive donated eligible leave credits from a represented employee except in cases of extreme hardship or other compelling circumstances as approved by the Department. Transfer of eligible leave credits may be interagency in accordance with the policies of the receiving agency.
(d) In order to receive donated leave credits, a non-represented employee must provide appropriate verification as determined by the agency. A non-represented employee eligible for this program will have any time that is donated credited to his/her account in one hour increments. Donated credits will be reflected as an hour-for-hour addition to the vacation or annual leave balance of the receiving employee. Use of donated credits may not exceed three (3) continuous months for any one occurrence; however, if approved by the appointing authority, use of donated credits may be for six (6) continuous months.
The total amount of leave credits donated may not exceed an amount sufficient to insure the continuance of regular compensation. All such transfers are irrevocable. A non-represented employee who receives time through this program shall use any leave credits he/she continues to accrue on a monthly basis prior to receiving time from this program.
