<br /> <br />23 <br />Local 21/SLCEA Memorandum of Understanding January 1, 2022 – December 31, 2024 <br />Regular part-time employees shall, upon the completion of six (6) consecutive months of <br />employment, commence to accrue paid leave, to be used for sick leave, holidays or <br />vacation leave, at the rate of four (4) hours for each full segment of fifty (50) hours worked <br />in the preceding calendar year. Exceptions may be approved at the sole discretion of the <br />Human Resources Director for employees who do not meet the six (6) consecutive <br />months of employment, upon recommendation by the department head. An eligible <br />employee who has worked fewer than fifty (50) hours in a calendar year may carry over <br />into the succeeding calendar year the fewer hours worked for purposes of accruing paid <br />leave. Paid leave earned and accrued under this section is cumulative and may be <br />carried over from one (1) calendar year to the following provided, however, that at the <br />end of this following calendar year the maximum accrual does not exceed one hundred <br />seventy (170) hours. <br /> <br />If a part-time employee is separated from employment and is rehired after more than a <br />one-year break in service, the employee must requalify for PTO by working 6 consecutive <br />months. <br /> <br />If a part-time employee is hired into a full-time position, their accrued PTO balance will be <br />cashed out during the effective pay period. <br /> <br />Section 26.

In the event an employee feels the discharge or suspension is <br />unjust, the Union shall have the right to appeal the case in accordance with the <br />provisions of this section. <br /> <br /> A probationary employee may be discharged at any time during the probationary <br />period, and such discharge shall not be subject to appeal or grievance. <br /> <br /> An employee's request for Union representation at all meetings and hearings related <br />to their disciplinary action or discharge will be granted. <br /> <br />26.2 Presumption of Delivery <br /> <br /> Any written notice shall be conclusively presumed delivered to the employee on the <br />date the written notice is personally served on the employee. In the event that any <br />notice is sent to an employee by certified mail, return receipt requested, the notice <br />shall be conclusively presumed delivered to the employee on the date the receipt <br />was signed. In the event the certified mail is refused, or in the event the employee
