Control Number: <br />206.07.01.003 <br />Version: <br />1.5 <br />Title: <br />Special Leaves <br />Page Number: <br />5 of 8 <br /> <br />Use of other Accrued Leave <br />While on federal active duty, an employee will be placed in a State of Idaho employment <br />status of ‘inactive with pay’. Therefore, an employee may elect to take accrued vacation <br />and/or accrued compensatory time (comp-time) during the federal active duty period. <br />The employee must provide a written request to his supervisor (or designee) prior to the <br />use of such time. <br />Note: When taken, vacation will be coded in I-time as vacation leave taken (VAC) and <br />comp-time will be coded as comp-time taken (CPT). <br />Regular Employee Benefits <br />When called to federal active duty, an employee will receive regular employee benefits <br />for 30 calendar days after his departure. During those 30 calendar days, the IDOC will <br />pay for the State of Idaho’s portion of the employee’s health insurance premiums, and <br />the employee will be responsible to pay for his portion. <br />Upon the employee’s return from federal active duty and to IDOC employment, he will <br />receive credited State of Idaho service hours for regularly scheduled hours that he would <br />have earned had he not been called to federal active duty. <br />Flexible Leave <br />Employees in reserve programs often have an option on dates for annual training <br />exercises. An employee’s immediate manager (or designee) may request that the <br />employee selects dates for annual training that will least interfere with the IDOC’s <br />objectives. If the employee has a choice, it will be the employee's responsibility to <br />discuss it with his supervisor (or designee) and military unit and to accept the dates that <br />are most appropriate for scheduling needs. <br />3. Military Leave for Employees on State Active Duty <br />Any probationary, provisional, or permanent employee who voluntarily, or upon demand, <br />leaves a position to enter state active duty with his State of Idaho military division will be <br />granted military LWOP. A copy of the employee’s military orders will be required to take <br />military LWOP. Upon the employee’s return from state active duty and to IDOC <br />employment, he will be returned to his same or similar position. A copy of the employee’s <br />discharge papers (e.g., NGB 22, Report of Separation and Record of Service) will be <br />required upon returning from state active duty. <br />Paid Leave during State Active Duty Deployment Period <br />Employees who are called to state active duty will remain in a State of Idaho <br />employment status of ‘active’. No earnings will be reported for the employee during the <br />deployment period. Only time worked with the State of Idaho military division will be <br />coded in I-time via the military division. Because the employee continues to be an active <br />IDOC employee during the state active duty period, the employee is not eligible to use <br />any paid leave from the IDOC during the state active duty deployment period. <br />Accrual of Credited State of Idaho Service Hours <br />Employees on state active duty will accrue credited State of Idaho service hours for time <br />worked with the State of Idaho military division.
