Years of Service Maximum Payoff. Less than 3 years 240 hours maximum paid at 100% 3 but less than 10 360 hours maximum paid at 100% 10 or more years A maximum of 1600 hours of the accrued annual leave balance has cash value. 480 hours are paid at 100%; remaining balance obtains cash value of 2% for each year of service, to a maximum of 50% i.e., 10 years of service equals 20% cash value for remaining balance; 25 or more years of service equals 50% of the remaining balance after deducted from 1600 hours maximum. Notwithstanding the above, no employee may receive a payoff paid at 100% that exceeds 480 hours for combined accrued vacation and annual leave. Accrued vacation will be paid at 100% up to the accrual limits specified in Article IV, Section 1.F; remaining hours, up to the accrual limits specified in Article IV, Section 1.F, will be paid from the annual leave accrual. (Accrued vacation that is taken as time- off for purposes of retirement (See Article IV, Section 2.J), will be considered as a payoff for purposes of this provision.) Employees with 10 or more years of service will be eligible to receive pro-rated payouts at the time of separation in the percentages referenced above for all accrued annual leave hours remaining after the 100% payout, up to 1600 hours. For example, an employee with 18 years of service has 320 hours of accrued vacation and 580 hours of accrued annual leave at the time of separation of service. The employee would be entitled to 480 hours of full pay (320 hours of vacation and 160 hours of annual leave) plus 420 hours of pay (580 – 160) at 36% (18 years x 2%).
