The Job Corps Director shall issue procedures to administer the
accrual and use of student leave. Such procedures shall provide that:
(a) Except for the initial pay period, students shall accrue annual
leave at the rate of one calendar day for each pay period provided that
the student was not AWOL or on administrative leave without pay during
that pay period. For the initial pay period, a student shall accrue one
day of annual leave regardless of the date of enrollment provided that
the student was not AWOL or on administrative leave without pay from the
date of enrollment. Accrual time shall begin on the day the student
departs for a center and end on the date of his or her scheduled arrival
home or at a place of employment.
(b) Annual leave shall continue to accrue during periods of home,
emergency, and administrative leave with pay and shall be suspended only
when the student is AWOL or on administrative leave without allowances.
(c) Students shall not be paid at termination for unused accrued
leave.
(d) Students may use accrued annual leave at any time subject to
approval by the Center Director. Annual leave with transportation at
government expense shall be allowed only after the student has spent 180
days in pay status in Job Corps, and only once per year of enrollment.
(e) Students shall not be charged annual leave for travel time to
and from home and center by the most direct route. Saturdays, Sundays,
and holidays that are officially recognized at the center shall not be
charged as annual leave.
