[Amended 4-7-1993 by Ord. No. 93-8-1088]
After completion of six months of service, each
employee shall be entitled to one workweek of vacation. If the six
months is completed prior to the end of the year in which service
started, vacation may be taken that year, and any additional full
months in that year will be compensated for at the rate of 1/12 of
10 days times the daily rate of pay. If the six months is not completed
in the same year that service started, all full months completed in
the initial year will be compensated at the end of six months, as
above. At the completion of 12 months of service, the employee shall
be entitled to a second workweek of vacation. Thereafter, after the
calendar year in which the probationary period expired, each employee
shall be entitled to two workweeks' vacation plus he or she will accrue
one additional day for each additional calendar year worked. Total
vacation time shall not exceed 32 workdays. In no case is an employee
entitled to more than two workweeks' vacation in a calendar year until
such time as he/she has accrued additional days as above. Annual vacation,
after the initial calendar year, is earned at the rate of 1/12 of
entitled vacation for each month completed in the year; e.g., if an
employee leaves service on June 30 of a year, he/she shall be entitled
to 1/2 of that year's vacation. Should he/she have already taken more
than 1/2 of that year's vacation, the compensation for that portion
exceeding 1/2 shall be calculated as above and deducted from the final
paycheck.

[Amended 5-4-1994 by Ord. No. 94-7-1107; 9-17-2008 by Ord. No. 08-20-1362]
A. Part-time employees.
(1) Part-time employees who work less than 20 hours of
the normally scheduled workweek within a department shall receive
vacation, on a proportionate basis, as follows: After 12 months continuous
service, part-time employees will be entitled to one week's paid vacation,
which must be taken within the calendar year of entitlement or, if
not taken, is forfeited.
(2) "One week's vacation" shall be defined as being the
pay for the number of hours the employee is scheduled to work per
week, regardless of the number of days the employee works. That is,
if an employee works six hours a day for three days a week, that employee
is entitled to 18 hours of vacation pay annually. Should an employee
work four hours a day for four days a week, that employee is entitled
to 16 hours of vacation pay annually.
(3) If a part-time employee occasionally works additional
hours, such hours will not count towards additional vacation pay.
B. "Vacation" shall be defined as being the number of
hours the employee is scheduled to work per week (regardless of the
number of days the employee works), divided by the number of hours
per week if the employee were full-time, times the number of days
an employee would be entitled to if the employee were full-time. That
is, if an employee works seven hours per day, three days a week, (and
the normal workweek is 35 hours), that employee is entitled to 2 1/35
of the vacation due to them if they were working full-time. After
the calendar year in which the probationary period expired, the employee
is entitled to that proportion of two workweeks vacation plus he/she
will accrue the same proportion of one additional day for each calendar
year worked. All vacation days will be rounded to the nearest whole
number.
