BENEFIT ADMINISTRATION
Vacation
Vacation is an accrued benefit which provides paid time off, subject to management approval, for eligible employees. For each qualifying pay period, vacation is earned at a rate applicable to your length of state service. Part-time employees earn vacation on a pro-rata basis. Vacation credit may be used after completion of one qualifying pay period of employment and must be taken in units of no less than one hour. Exempt employees must charge vacation leave usage in full-day increments.

6 2/3 hours per month |
