The reason is that Arlington pays at overtime rates, so at time at a half rates the total number is 180 hrs<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05677131782878885334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753500464136402496.post-24280387355845813922017-04-23T08:31:36.968-05:002017-04-23T08:31:36.968-05:00This morning I had an individual challenge me stat...This morning I had an individual challenge me stating that USERRA didn’t grant payment for military leave, but Civil Service under part 143 did. After calling me several names, demonstrating that he couldn’t communicate on a certain level I refused to publish his comment. I know who this person is an will not publish any of his comments now or in the future. The following are excerpts from both documents. Note that Arlington grants 180 hrs. 60 hrs. more than the USERRA requirement. Part 143 only grants Military Leave Time Accounts. Time accounts are currently used for Police officer union business. You make the call concerning which document speaks to pay for military leave.<br /><br />USERRA MILITARY LEAVE, Employees who perform active military duty may request paid military leave, as specified in 5 U.S.C. 6323(a). <br />• Under the law, an eligible full-time employee accrues 15 days (120 hours) of military leave each fiscal year. In addition, an employee may carry over up to 15 days (120 hours) of unused military leave from one fiscal year to the next. When the 15 days of military leave that are carried over are combined with the 15 days of military leave accrued at the beginning of the new fiscal year, this produces a maximum military leave benefit of 30 days in a fiscal year. However, since an employee cannot carry over more than 15 calendar days to the next fiscal year, any unused military leave in excess of 15 days will be forfeited at the beginning of the next fiscal year. <br />• Part-time career employees accrue military leave on a prorated basis. Employees who elect to use military leave will receive full compensation from their civilian position for each hour charged to military leave, in addition to their military pay for the same period. We remind agencies that 5 U.S.C. 6323 was amended in 2001 to require charges for military leave to be made on an hour for hour basis for all hours the employee would have worked. This does not apply to employees of the United States Postal Service. Additional information on charging military leave can be found in OPM’s memorandum of January 25, 2001, at OPM’s website at http:// www.opm.gov/oca/compmemo/2001/2001-02.htm. <br />• Employees who perform active military duty may be granted an additional 22 days of military leave under 5 U.S.C. 6323(b) if such leave is granted for the purpose of providing military aid to assist domestic civilian authorities to enforce the law or protect life and property. <br /><br />CIVIL SERVICE Sec. 143.075. MILITARY LEAVE TIME ACCOUNTS. (a) A municipality shall maintain military leave time accounts for the fire and police departments and must maintain a separate military leave time account for each department.<br />(b) A military leave time account shall benefit a fire fighter or police officer who:<br />(1) is a member of the Texas National Guard or the armed forces reserves of the United States;<br />(2) was called to active federal military duty while serving as a fire fighter or police officer for the municipality; and<br />(3) has served on active duty for a period of 3 continuous months or longer.<br />(c) A fire fighter or police officer may donate any amount of accumulated vacation, holiday, sick, or compensatory leave time to the military leave time account in that fire fighter's or police officer's department to help provide salary continuation for fire fighters or police officers who qualify as eligible beneficiaries of the account under Subsection (b). A fire fighter or police officer who wishes to donate time to an account under this section must authorize the donation in writing on a form provided by the fire or police department and approved by the municipality.<br />(d) A municipality shall equally distribute the leave time donated to a military leave time account among all fire fighters or police officers who are eligible beneficiaries of that account. The municipality shall credit and debit the applicable military leave time account on an hourly basis regardless of the cash value of the time donated or used.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05677131782878885334noreply@blogger.com
