§443. Pool leave account; participation; use A. Any full-time employee of an employing agency may request voluntarily, in writing, that a specified number of hours of his accrued annual, sick, or compensatory leave or any combination thereof be transferred from his annual, sick, or compensatory leave account to a pool account the agency establishes to distribute leave pursuant to the provisions of this Part. B. No employee with less than fifteen days in his personal sick leave account may transfer any leave to the pool account. Any employee with more than fifteen days in his sick leave account may transfer sick leave to the pool account provided he retains a minimum of fifteen days in his own sick leave account. C. Annual, sick, or compensatory leave transferred under this Part may be substituted retroactively for periods of leave without pay or used to liquidate an indebtedness for advanced annual, sick, or compensatory leave granted. D. A leave recipient may use annual, sick, or compensatory leave from the pool account in the same manner as if the recipient had accrued the leave in the manner provided by law, rule, regulation, or policy. E. Participating employees shall not be eligible to use transferred leave from the pool account until all personally accrued annual, sick, and compensatory leave has been used. F. Transferred annual, sick, or compensatory leave from the pool account remaining to the credit of a leave recipient when his employment terminates shall not be transferred to another employee, included in a lump-sum payment for accrued leave, or included in the total service for retirement computation.
