If the employee meets all of the conditions set forth in this subsection, then county shall deduct the designated amount of accrued sick leave from the employee's account and proceed to purchase retirement service credit from PERS in an amount equal to the number of hours elected to be converted by the employee. Sick Leave traded for PERS services credits shall be in minimum increments of forty (40) hours. 3. Conversion of sick leave into retirement credits is limited by NRS to a maximum of five years’ service credits. If an employee has already purchased five (5) years of service credits they are ineligible to participate in this program.
