Common use of Partial Break in Service Clause in Contracts

Partial Break in Service. Partial Break in Service shall include a separation from service of thirty-one days or more for unpaid educational leave, absence without authorized leave for more than five (5) days (e.g., AWOL, as opposed to LWOP), and separation from service which carries with it the right to reinstatement (e.g., disability retirement, etc.). When a "partial break in service" occurs, the employee's service is to be adjusted by the number of days that the employee was not in service. This will be done by counting the number of days during the break in service and then adjusting the employee's start date forward in time by an equal number of days.
