Public Holidays falling within Annual Leave (a) If a Public Holiday, as prescribed in this Agreement, falls within an Employee’s Annual Leave the Public Holiday does not constitute part of the Employee’s Annual Leave and will be paid as ordinary hours.
Loading on Annual Leave During a period of annual leave an Employee covered by this clause shall receive a loading of 22.5% calculated on the all-purpose rate of wage prescribed by Appendix A, clause 2.3 of this Agreement.
Entitlement to Annual Leave An employee is entitled to accrue an amount of paid annual leave, for each completed 4 week period of continuous service with the company, of 1 / 13 of the number of nominal hours worked by the employee during that 4 week period. Example: An employee whose nominal hours worked for a 12 month period were 38 hours per week would be entitled to 152 hours of annual leave (which would be the equivalent of 4 weeks of annual leave if his or her nominal hours worked remained unchanged).
Payment for annual leave (a) Before going on annual leave, an employee will be paid the amount of wages they would have received for ordinary time worked had they not been on leave during that period. (b) At the election of the employee such payments may be paid in accordance with the usual pay day relevant to the period of leave being taken.
School Calendar The Dual Credit course schedule will be determined by the location of the course delivery, provided that the required contact hours and prerequisites are met. The instructional calendar for the high school portion of the School will be based on the School District calendar and comply with all related TEA regulations for school attendance. The School District will adjust its schedule as necessary to enable Students to enroll in and attend the college- level courses provided by College. The School District and College will coordinate the State Student assessment requirements to ensure said assessments are administered without penalty. The School District, School and College will ensure that the School calendar accounts for the required per-semester contact hours for courses. When the instructional delivery is on the College site, it may be necessary for Students to attend classes on days when the School District is closed (e.g., different holiday closures). When Students take classes at the College scheduled on days when School is closed, the School District will ensure that at least one staff member with administrative authority be on call and available to be reached by the College’s Office of High School Programs or other College staff in case of emergency. The designated School staff member will have access to Student emergency contact information. While the College agrees to make scheduling accommodations for required State assessments, including the STAAR and End of Course Exams, all contact hour requirements must be met. For assessments not mandated by the State, the College and School District will come to a mutual agreement on administration dates in order to appropriately manage disruptions of college courses and ensure contact hour requirements are met.

Taking Annual Leave 29.3.1 The Employer and Employee shall seek to reach agreement on a mutually convenient time (having regard to overall operational and staffing requirements of the Company) for annual leave to be taken by the Employee. Where such agreement, cannot be reached, the Employer may fix a time for an Employee’s annual leave to be taken within a period of six (6) months or less from the date when the right to take annual leave has accrued, after giving at least fourteen (14) days’ notice to the Employee. 29.3.2 An Employee is required to provide at least one (1) months’ notice of a request to take annual leave however, final approval shall lie with the Company. 29.3.3 At the Company’s discretion, it may allow an Employee to take annual leave before the right to take it has accrued, but where such leave is taken, a further period of leave shall not commence to accrue until after the expiration of the twelve (12) months service that was required to accrue the right to take the annual leave. Where annual leave or part thereof has been granted before the right to take it has accrued and the Employee subsequently leaves before completing the required twelve (12) months service, and the amount paid by the Employer to the Employee for the annual leave taken exceeds the amount the Employer is required to pay to the Employee on termination, the Employer shall not be liable to make any payment to the Employee for annual leave and shall be entitled to deduct the amount of excess from any remuneration payable to the Employee upon termination of employment. 29.3.4 Where an Employee has more than eight (8) weeks annual leave entitlement accrued to them, the Company may direct the Employee to take annual leave by providing a minimum four (4) weeks’ notice in writing to the employee. Such direction shall only apply to a maximum of one quarter of the leave credits owing to the employee. 29.3.5 The Company may direct Employees to take any accrued annual leave during the Company’s annual close down (i.e., Christmas/New Year period). Employees that do not apply for leave during this period may be required to take annual leave. Where Employees have not yet accrued such annual leave, the leave taken shall be treated as Leave without Pay. The business will provide a minimum of 2 months notice about this closure each year. 29.3.6 If a public holiday (as prescribed in this Agreement) falls within an Employee's annual leave and, is on a day which would have been an nominal working day, then extra time equivalent to the public holiday shall be added to the Employee's annual leave. 29.3.7 An Employee shall not offer their Service to any other Employer during the period the Employee is on paid annual leave and, the Employer shall not engage an Employee who is on paid annual leave.
Holiday Coinciding with a Day of Vacation Where an employee is on vacation leave and a day of paid holiday falls within that period, the paid holiday shall not count as a day of vacation.
Cashing out annual leave The employee may, with the agreement of the employer, request in writing, to cash out up to two weeks of their annual leave during each 12 month period. Annual leave cannot be cashed out in advance of it being credited to the employee. Cashed out annual leave will be paid at the rate of pay that the employee receives at the time when the request is made.
