Eligibility for Accrual. Eligibility for personal leave accrual shall commence once the Port Engineer has accumulated two thousand one hundred eighty-four (2,184) straight-time hours of compensation. The Port Engineer will then be considered as having one (1) year of continuous service, thereby establishing a leave anniversary date. Upon the establishment of a leave anniversary date, the Port Engineer will be credited with eighty-four (84) hours personal leave. Personal leave in successive years shall be at rates shown in 23.01 (B). Personal leave benefits awarded under this Rule will not be construed as establishing seniority, which is separately defined in Rule 26. Once eligible for personal leave accrual, a Port Engineer will be credited with one-thirteenth (1/13) of the year's personal leave accrual during each calendar month in which he or she is compensated for a minimum of eighty-four (84) straight-time hours. A Port Engineer's leave anniversary date will be adjusted forward one (1) month for each calendar month that he or she does not receive personal leave credit.
