Management Leave In lieu of overtime, executive management employees receive 100 hours of management leave during each full fiscal year of service to the City. Management leave must be used in the year it is earned and cannot be carried over to succeeding fiscal years. During the first pay period in July each year, management leave hours will be credited to the eligible employee's management leave account or other designated leave bank. The City will "cash out" one quarter (1/4) of the employee’s unused management leave balance remaining on the last day of the last full pay period in June of each year and convert it to reportable compensation by paying the employee his/her hourly, regular rate of pay in effect at the time of the cash out. A management employee newly hired into the organization shall not be eligible to receive management leave during the probation period. Managers appointed from within the organization are immediately eligible to receive management leave. Management leave credited to the leave account of a new employee completing probation and all other eligible management employees shall be prorated at the rate of 3.85 hours for each full pay period remaining in the current fiscal year. Conversely, a manager leaving the organization prior to the end of a fiscal year shall return back to the City 3.85 hours of management leave for each full pay period remaining at the time of separation in his/her final fiscal year of employment with the City. In the event that the employee, at the time of separation from the City, has a zero balance in his/her management leave bank a deduction for management leave time owed the City shall be made, in the following order: from the employee's accrued vacation leave bank; accrued sick leave bank; and/or as an equivalent hour-for-hour cash reimbursement to the City from the employee's final payroll disbursement.
