Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) Only vacation and
					 sick leave credits may be donated in increments of one hour or more. For
					 catastrophic illness or injury, employees may donate a maximum of forty (40) hours
					 of accrued leave credits per calendar year. For catastrophic leave for a natural
					 disaster/state of emergency, there is no maximum limit that an employee can donate
					 as long as the employee maintains a balance of forty (40) hours of vacation leave
					 credits and forty (40) hours of sick leave credits per calendar year. Donations are
					 irrevocable. Donated leave credits may be used to supplement Industrial Disability
					 leave, Nonindustrial Disability Insurance or Temporary Disability payments upon the
					 application for these benefit(s) by an eligible employee. The total amount of leave
					 credits donated and used may not exceed an amount sufficient to ensure the
					 continuance of the employee's regular monthly rate of compensation.
(b) The total donated leave credits an employee
					 can receive shall normally not exceed an amount necessary to continue the employee
					 for three calendar months calculated from the first day of catastrophic leave. The
					 appointing authority may approve up to an additional three-month period in
					 exceptional cases. The leave credits shall not be deemed donated until actually
					 transferred by the appointing authority's recordkeeper to the record of the employee
					 receiving leave credits. Such transfer shall be accomplished at the end of a pay
					 period, and credits shall be transferred in the order of the dates actually
					 pledged.
(c) For employees whose
					 appointments have not been renewed, donated time may not be used beyond the
					 emoployee's appointment expiration date in effect at the beginning of the disability
					 for catastrophic leave for illness or injury or the date the employee begins
					 catastrophic leave for a natural disaster/state of emergency.
(d) Unused donated leave credits may not be used
					 to receive service credit following a service or disability retirement.
