Human Resource Management

Employees earn accruals during the course of their employment in accordance with the CSEA contract agreement with New York State.  Employees may obtain a Classified Service Attendance Record online. The New York State Department of Civil Service Attendance and Leave Manual is available online at www.cs.ny.gov/attend_leave_manual/.

Vacation*
Full-time employees earn at the rate of one half day per pay period after the completion of 13 pay periods of employment. Bonus days are added each year on vacation anniversary date at the rate of one day per year of service to a maximum of 20 days per year after 7 years.

Upon completion of 7 years of service, vacation is earned at a rate of 13 days per year for first 7 years then 20 days per year thereafter. Employees also receive bonus days upon completion of 20+ years of service.

Vacation is earned as noted, with completion of 1 to 35 or more years of service. Part-time employees who work a regular schedule of at least half-time earn accruals on a pro-rated basis.

On April 1 of each fiscal year, accumulated vacation credits in excess of 40 days are forfeited.
