Section 6. Vacation Leave -Maximum Accrual Vacation leave may be accrued without any applicable maximum until December 31 of each calendar year. At the end of each benefit year on December 31, any county employee with accrued vacation leave in excess of 240 hours (or 336 hours for EMS 24/48 personnel and 252 hours for law enforcement officers working a 12 hour shift schedule) shall have the excess vacation leave converted to sick leave. Converted sick leave shall be used in the same manner as accrued sick leave and may be used for authorized sick leave purposes. And, like regular sick leave, any unused converted sick leave may be counted toward creditable service at retirement as regulated by the North Carolina Local Governmental Employees' Retirement System or Law Enforcement Officers' Benefit and Retirement Fund. Employees are cautioned not to retain an excess accumulation of vacation leave until late in the calendar year. Due to the necessity of keeping all County functions in operation, large numbers of employees cannot be granted vacation leave at any one time. If an employee has excess leave accumulation during the latter part of the year and is unable to take such leave because of staffing demands, the employee shall receive no special consideration either in having vacation leave scheduled or in receiving any exception to the maximum accumulation. Section 7. Vacation Leave -Payment on Separation An employee who is separated shall be paid for vacation leave accumulated to the date of separation, not to exceed a maximum of 240 hours (336 hours for EMS 24/48 personnel and 252 hours for law enforcement officers working a 12 hour shift schedule). The estate of an employee who dies while employed by the County shall be entitled to payment for all of the accumulated vacation leave credited to the employee's account not to exceed a maximum of 240 hours (336 hours for EMS 24/48 personnel and 252 hours for law enforcement officers working a 12 hour shift schedule). The date of death shall be used as the date of separation for purpose of determining such payment. 27 F-5 Attachment number 6 Page 246 of 362
