Release from Duty. On duty personnel who have signed-up to take the written examination shall be released from duty to take the examination. Personnel shall be released from duty one hour prior to the start time of the exam and shall report back to duty immediately after completing the examination and receiving their examination score. Seniority points for personnel who have signed-up for the written exam shall be computed and posted at least 7 days prior to the written exam. A maximum of 25 points for 20 years of service shall be awarded. Points for employees with less than 20 years service shall be computed as follows. Seniority in days of service shall be determined by subtracting the employee’s date of hire from the date on which the applicable current promotion list expires or was exhausted. An employee’s date of hire shall be adjusted to reflect any time not credited towards seniority as defined by the parties’ collective bargaining agreement. The current promotion list shall be considered to have been exhausted on the date the last eligible person on that list received (or refused) an initial appointment to the applicable rank. Years of seniority shall be determined by dividing seniority in days of service by 365.25. Years of seniority shall then be multiplied by 1.25 to determine an employee’s seniority points. Final value shall be rounded to 2 decimal places (hundredths). (Date of expiration or exhaustion of list - Employee date of hire) x 1.25/365.25
