[Adopted 12-20-1960 by Ord. No. 3319 as Article
2 of Chapter 27 of the Revised Ordinances of the City of Clifton,
New Jersey, 1960]
A.
Officers and employees of the City who are regularly
employed, permanently or temporarily, may be granted vacation leaves
for periods between January 3 and December 15 of each calendar year
as hereinafter provided in this article. Nothing herein contained
shall apply to seasonal employees.
B.
Annual vacation leaves shall be in accordance with
the standards set by the Civil Service Commission of New Jersey, namely,
one day per month to the close of the first calendar year of employment.
Thereafter, annual vacation leave shall accrue as provided in this
article.
When any officer or employee shall have served
six months or more during the first calendar year of his office or
employment, the first day of January of that year shall be used in
determining his annual vacation leave. The civil service regulation
of one day per month shall be used in all cases for the first calendar
year of employment or any portion thereof.
In any calendar year, when vacation leave or
any part thereof is not granted because of the pressure of municipal
affairs and business, such vacation leave or part thereof not granted
shall be added to the vacation for the next succeeding year only,
at the discretion of the department head and with the consent and
approval of the City Manager. The City Manager may direct completion
of any accumulated annual vacation leave in the year in which it has
accumulated.
A.
Vacation leaves may be divided into no more than two
specific periods during any one year; provided, however, that the
City Manager may permit the divisions of vacation leaves into more
than two specific periods if, in his opinion, such division is necessary
in order to provide adequate and sufficient municipal services and
to ensure proper and adequate administration of the City. Division
of leave shall not become effective until approved by the City Manager.
[Amended 8-2-1966 by Ord. No. 3701]
B.
No vacation leaves shall be divided so that the officer
or employee would be absent from his office or employment more than
the number of calendar days he would be entitled to if he had taken
his vacation leave in consecutive calendar days as a single unit.
[Amended 4-20-1965 by Ord. No. 3617; 7-5-1967 by Ord. No. 3779; 4-6-1971 by Ord. No. 4037-71]
Vacation leave preference in the Police Department
and the Fire Public Safety Department shall be by rank and in order
of seniority. In all other departments, vacation leave preference
shall be determined by the department head with due regard for the
wishes and seniority of the employee and the needs of the department
and of the City.
Requests for vacation leaves shall be submitted
in writing. No changes in vacation leave schedules shall be permitted
without the consent of the department head.
A.
Department heads shall submit vacation leave schedules
for the approval of the City Manager at least two weeks prior to any
annual vacation leave in the department.
B.
Vacation leaves shall be subject to adjustment, if
necessary, in the best interests of the department and the City.
C.
Vacation leaves shall be scheduled to eliminate, as
far as practicable, the necessity of engaging temporary personnel
to perform the duties of the vacationing officer or employee.
The following schedule of days of vacation leave
shall apply to all officers and employees as hereinafter more particularly
set forth and shall be computed from January 1 of the year following
appointment if the amount of service in the previous year was six
months or less:
