Title
AN ACT CONCERNING THE PERSONNEL LAW for the purpose of amending provisions of the Personnel Law so that the leave year for annual, sick, military and personal leave will be for a common period that will begin January 1 and end December 31, which is the same as the calendar year, and allow for leave to be taken in increments of one-quarter (1/4) hour.
Background
This legislation will amend provisions of the Personnel Law within the County Code. The County is in the process of implementing its Enterprise Resource Planning ("ERP") project, which will improve several core business operations, including human resources and payroll technology tools. As part of ERP, it is recommended to take advantage of new system functionality and structure the leave year for annual, sick, military and personal leave for a common period that will begin January 1 and end December 31, which is the same as the calendar year, and also to allow for leave to be taken in increments of one-quarter (1/4) hour.
There is no anticipated fiscal impact as employees will continue to accrue the same amount of leave as currently provided under the Personnel Law.
