Need a Vacation? Last year we agreed at the negotiation table, and later on the agreement was ratified by the Trustees and CSEA members, that any vacation over what is permitted in the contract must be used by all classified employees by June 30, 2009. Both parties agreed that the legal intent and purpose of vacation is to allow employees to have a respite from work for their health and well-being. The College has been allowing vacation to accumulate beyond the maximum allowable and the contract language restricting excess vacation. This was agreed to by both parties in 1996. If vacation requests for use of that time are denied, the employee can be paid for that time! Apart from that, any vacation that is credited on July 1 of each year which puts an employee over the limit must be used within six months of being earned. All vacation hours that were earned by employees prior to July 1, 1996, remain fully vested unless used by the employee and are exempt from the “use it by June 30, 2009” provisions. Please have your managers/supervisors in your area refer to the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Fill out a written request for a vacation and get your manager to sign a form approving or denying your vacation. Don’t let your earned vacation be wasted. In Unity,
