Education Leave With Partial Allowance In Lieu Of Salary. A minimum allowance equivalent to fifty percent (50%) of present salary will be paid to a xxxxx- date, when, in order to make the most economical use of existing manpower and to capitalize on accumulated experience, knowledge and capability, the Employer selects the employee to meet an identified need rather than recruit outside the Hamlet of Fort Providence. Recognizing that fifty percent (50%) of salary may prove a financial burden to employees who will be continuing their studies beyond a one (1) year program, a ten percent (10%) increase will be added to the allowance in lieu of salary in each consecutive year of study, up to a maximum of eighty percent (80%).
