			 State after he or she has completed 3 years of continuous service. The employee
			 must requalify after each break in service.
2. An employee who is rehired within 1 year
			 after being laid off accrues annual leave at a rate based on his or her total
			 state service. He or she may use the annual leave immediately upon accruing it
			 if he or she has completed a total of 6 months of employment.
3. An employee with a permanent disability
			 arising from a work-related injury or occupational disease who is reemployed
			 following a separation from state service within 1 year after the date on which
			 he or she sustained the permanent disability as determined pursuant to NAC
			 284.6013 accrues annual leave at
			 a rate based on his or her total state service. He or she may use the annual
			 leave immediately upon accruing it if he or she has completed a total of 6
			 months of employment.
4. An
			 employee who is rehired within 1 year after being laid off is entitled to buy
			 back the balance of the annual leave for which he or she received payment in a
			 lump sum on the date of the layoff. The rate of pay at which he or she is
			 rehired applies to the buying back of annual leave.
5. An employee with a permanent disability
			 arising from a work-related injury or occupational disease who is reemployed
			 following a separation from state service within 1 year after the date on which
			 he or she sustained the permanent disability as determined pursuant to NAC
			 284.6013 is entitled to buy back
			 the balance of the annual leave for which he or she received payment in a lump
			 sum at the time of separation. The rate of pay at which he or she is reemployed
			 applies to the buying back of annual leave.
6. If an employee who was laid off before
			 completing 6 months of employment is rehired within 1 year after the layoff,
			 the amount of the unpaid annual leave he or she had earned before the layoff
			 must be restored.
7. If a person
			 eligible for military reemployment is reemployed, he or she accrues annual
			 leave at the rate which he or she would have earned if he or she had not left
			 state service.
8. If an employee is
			 appointed without a break in service from a position under one appointing
			 authority to a position under another appointing authority, the balance of the
			 employee's annual leave is charged to the agency to which he or she is
			 appointed.
9. If a nonclassified
			 employee, an employee occupying a position within the Nevada System of Higher
			 Education, or an employee included in the State Personnel System pursuant to
			 NRS
			 284.022 is appointed without a break in
			 service to the nonclassified, classified or unclassified service, his or her
			 annual leave will be transferred to the new appointment. The amount of annual
			 leave transferred by the employee pursuant to this subsection may not exceed
			 the maximum amount which is permitted by the classified or unclassified rate of
			 accrual as set forth in
			 NRS
			 284.350 and NAC
			 284.538. The agency to which the
			 employee is appointed is not responsible for payment of any annual leave in
			 excess of the amount which is transferable. It is the responsibility of the
			 employee who is transferring annual leave to seek payment of any excess amount
			 of annual leave remaining to his or her credit from his or her former
			 employer.
