Leave Forfeiture Clause Samples

A Leave Forfeiture clause establishes the conditions under which an employee may lose their accrued but unused leave, such as vacation or paid time off. Typically, this clause specifies that unused leave will be forfeited if not taken within a certain period, like by the end of the calendar year or upon termination of employment. Its core practical function is to encourage employees to use their allotted leave within a designated timeframe and to limit the employer’s liability for accumulating large balances of unused leave.

Leave Forfeiture. Should this recommendation be a suspension, the Hearing Officer may make a written offer to the employee that the employee forfeit up to one hundred twenty (120) hours of accrued vacation or compensatory time, provided the employee has sufficient vacation and/or compensatory time balances at the time the offer is made. If the employee agrees to forfeit such accrued leave the forfeiture shall be one (1) hour of accrued leave for each one (1) hour of the proposed suspension. The type of leave (vacation or compensatory time) shall be the employee’s choice. The forfeiture of the leave shall constitute corrective/disciplinary action of record, shall be accordingly noted in the employee’s personnel file, and shall constitute the final resolution of the departmental charges, which resolution shall not later be subject to challenge by the employee or the Union under the grievance procedure or in any other forum. If the employee chooses to accept the Hearing Officer's written offer, the Hearing Officer shall acknowledge the employee's acceptance of the offer in writing. Should the Hearing Officer choose not to offer this option or should the employee reject the offer, appropriate disciplinary action shall be imposed.
