Annual Leave Schedules. Except for requests for annual leave of five (5) days or fewer falling within an administrative workweek, all requests for annual leave shall be subject to the following:
(1) Employees shall request leave sufficiently in advance of peak use periods (i.e., June, July, August, November, and December) to permit scheduling. Leave schedules shall be established and posted in a conspicuous place.
(2) When it is impracticable to grant all requests for annual leave for a given period, including, in this case, leave for five (5) days or fewer, the supervisor shall provide the affected employees with the opportunity to work out leave conflicts prior to resolving the conflict. If it is necessary for the supervisor to resolve a conflict, the relative importance of each of the following criteria shall be considered:
(a) Employees with "use or lose" leave, especially in the cases where the period involved is at the end of the leave year.
(b) The amount of leave to employee's credit.
(c) Relative need of employees for taking leave at a specific time.
(d) Whether the employee had to reschedule or forego leave in a similar scheduling conflict.
(3) If an employee wishes to change scheduled leave, his/her leave shall be approved if workload permits. If workload does not permit, he/she shall be provided an opportunity to interchange leave periods with an employee who has similar skills and duties, with the concurrence of the supervisor.
Annual Leave Schedules. Annual leave schedules will be established in January of each year to insure that all employees are given an opportunity for a reasonable vacation and to use any leave they would otherwise forfeit. The standard period for vacation leave is two (2) consecutive weeks; however, with supervisory approval, leave periods of more or less than two (2) weeks may be scheduled. Employees will be notified by the supervisor not later than 15 February of any problems arising from the initial leave schedules and appropriate action will be taken promptly to resolve the problems. After 31 January through the end of the leave year, the order of preference for scheduling annual leave is that the earliest submitted request or schedule has preference.
