B. An employee who has completed less than one year's service <br /> during the calendar year shall receive a proportionate fraction in <br /> accordance with the amount of service to his credit during the year; <br /> provided, however, no employee shall be entitled to, or receive payment <br /> for, any vacation until he has completed six (6) months of continuous <br /> service. <br /> C. On or after the first (1st) day of the month following <br /> completion of six (6) months of continuous full-time service, an employee <br /> may be allowed to take all or a proportionate fraction of his or her <br /> earned vacation, subject to scheduling approval of the employee's <br /> supervisor. <br /> D. Absence on sick leave for a period in excess of fifteen <br /> (15) consecutive calendar days shall not be considered as service for <br /> vacation accrual purposes. <br /> E. Vacation time off may be taken in increments as small as <br /> one (1) hour, with fractional usage rounded upward to the next higher <br /> multiple of one (1). <br /> F. Computation of Regular Vacation: <br /> (1) In computing regular vacation, each municipal holiday <br /> that occurs during the vacation, and that falls on a day which the <br /> employee would have worked had he/she not been on vacation, shall be <br /> deducted from the computation so that one (1) additional day of regular <br /> vacation shall be allowed to the employee unless departmental practice <br /> provides some other manner of compensating for municipal holidays. <br /> Should an employee be confined to a hospital for sickness or injury while <br /> on authorized vacation, each full day of such confinement, when confirmed <br /> by a physician's statement and approval of the Chief of Police, may be <br /> deducted from the computation of vacation expended and charged against <br /> the employee's accumulated sick leave. <br /> (2) No employee may carry over from one calendar year to <br /> the next, more than the equivalent of two (2) regular vacation periods <br /> from the previous two (2) years, and vacation not taken beyond that <br /> amount is forfeited. A regular vacation period is defined as the maximum <br /> amount of vacation earned in a calendar year as provided in subsection A, <br /> supra. <br /> (3) No employee shall have a right to accumulate or split <br /> his/her vacation, but the same may be allowed or required by the Chief of <br /> Police. Each affected employee shall be afforded the opportunity to <br /> submit vacation selection(s) and the Chief of Police or his designee <br /> shall make every reasonable effort to accommodate the employee's vacation <br /> preference(s). The time at which an employee shall take his/her vacation <br /> shall be determined by the Chief of Police, with due regard for the <br /> wishes of the employee and particular regard for the needs of the service. <br /> -19- <br />
