Time for Vacation. Annual Vacation sign-ups for all employees (including Academy graduated on-the-job- trainees) shall be conducted by the Department in the month of December. The Department will segregate vacation sign-ups for independent or stand alone assignments and specialized units from division vacation sign-up in order to reduce the impact of vacation requests from individuals in stand alone assignments and specialized units on vacation sign-ups made at the division level. Vacation preference/sign-up within a division/specialized unit shall be based on (1) rank, (2) time-in-rank as modified in section 7.2, and (3) Department seniority, by Division, by Team. Division Administration shall make vacation slots available for each team using a factor of approximatley13% with a minimum of 9 vacations slots, of the number of personnel assigned to the team. An officer who is transferred, or reassigned, shall not lose his vacation sign-up preference because of said transfer, or reassignment. Upon initial sign-up, employees in order of seniority may split their vacation sign-ups into eight (8) blocks, provided that each block shall not be less than one (1) calendar week, nor more than eight (8) total calendar weeks for all blocks combined. All employees, covered under this MOU, in their first year of employment are guaranteed two weeks should they have adequate leave balances at the time of bidding. In the event that all vacation slots have been filled, the last two weeks available will remain open until all employees have completed vacation sign-ups. A calendar week is defined as Sunday through Saturday. Management may allow a one week block of vacation to begin on a Saturday for purposes of facilitating vacation requests for employees whose regularly scheduled work week begins on a Saturday. Once initial sign-ups have been completed, the vacation calendar shall be posted and employees in order of seniority may request remaining vacant slots as secondary vacation. Secondary vacation requests will be made in one (1) week intervals and not to exceed the employee’s accrued vacation. All initial and secondary sign-ups shall be completed by January 1st. Once the primary and secondary vacation sign-ups have been completed employees may request to be placed on the standby vacation list in one (1) week intervals (when there are no more vacant slots available for a specific week). Standby vacation requests will be accepted and the employee will be placed on the list on a first come, first serve basis. Employees will be granted their standby vacation when the Division receives cancellation notices for that time period upon approval by the Division Commander. Exchanging vacation leaves between employees is prohibited. Employees excluding Correctional Sergeants, Sheriff’s Correctional Sergeants and Sheriff’s Correctional Lieutenants, must take their scheduled vacation in increments of not less than one (1) week (Sunday through Saturday). Employees may cancel their scheduled vacation in increments of one week. All cancellations must be submitted to the employee’s Division Commander or the appointing authority’s designee a minimum of two calendar weeks prior to their scheduled vacation. Approval of vacation request, after December, shall not necessarily be based on seniority and shall be granted at the discretion of the Division/Section Commander. Employees are responsible to monitor and manage their own vacation balances. Employees who have an authorized vacation scheduled in increments of one (1) work week may submit a written request to reduce the length of vacation time to increments of not less than one (1) work day. The written request must be submitted no less than 14 calendar days prior to the vacation start date. Authorized vacations that are modified to a length of time less than one work week will NOT be considered a cancelation for purposes of authorizing any time off, to include, but not limited to, vacation or personal leave, to employees on the vacation stand by or secondary list. Employees are reminded that they are responsible for monitoring and managing their own vacation balances. No additional consideration will be given to any employee who reaches their three (3) year vacation carry over limit because they chose to reduce the amount of vacation time taken.
