Common use of Exception to Maximum Accrual Clause in Contracts

Exception to Maximum Accrual. When the needs of the District prevent an employee from scheduling earned vacation such that the employee will exceed the maximum accrual allowed within the two year limit, the District will either: (1) provide a lump sum payment equivalent to the amount that exceeds the maximum accrual; or (2) allow vacation accrual in excess of the maximum accrual until such time as the District-determined need concludes and the employee is afforded the opportunity to schedule earned vacation. Determinations of District need and the duration of that need for purposes of denying vacation requests pursuant to this section require authorization from the appropriate Vice President.
