Common use of Carry-Over of Annual Leave Clause in Contracts

Carry-Over of Annual Leave. (a) An employee who wishes to defer a maximum of five (5) days’ annual vacation to the following fiscal year shall inform his or her superior thereof in writing. With the exception of the situations provided for in paragraphs 19.10 (b) and (c), an employee may not, at any time during the fiscal year, bank more annual leave than his or her basic allotted leave for that year, plus five (5) days. (b) Carried-over vacation leave, when the Employer has refused during the year the employee's request or requests and has not been able to grant them at another time because of operational requirements, should be taken during the following fiscal year. (c) An employee who is unable to take any or all of his or her vacation days by the end of the fiscal year due to an authorized absence from work (e.g. long-term disability, maternity or parental leave, workplace accident, etc.) or for any other reason that the Employer deems to be exceptional may, by agreement with the Human Resources Division, defer more than the five (5) vacation days allowed under paragraph (a). It is agreed that in applying this provision, the employee and supervisor shall make a reasonable effort, subject to operational requirements, to ensure that the employee is able to take as much vacation as possible by the end of the current fiscal year. Exceptionally, and only after obtaining the permission of the Human Resources Division, in lieu of annual vacation that he or she was unable to take due to an extended absence from work, an employee may receive compensation corresponding to his or her regular pay multiplied by the number of hours of vacation remaining to be taken by the end of the fiscal year. (d) Deferred vacation days shall be paid at the rate in effect at the time they are taken.
