[All_staff] Reminder: Maximum Vacation Leave Balance

[Rhonda Barbosa]

  Dear Colleagues,*

*It's that time of year to review your vacation balance...
On December 31, 2010, employees that reach the maximum vacation balance 
will forfeit any accruals that exceed the allowable limit.  Employees 
must use excess vacation by December 31, 2010 to ensure vacation 
accruals are not lost.
*
*
* An employee's date of hire is key in determining the maximum vacation 
accrual allowance.*
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Employees hired on or after October 5, 2006*

    * The maximum vacation leave balance for employees hired on or after
      October 5, 2006 is 240 hours.
    * Any accrued vacation leave above 240 hours on midnight December
      31, 2010 will be forfeited.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Employees hired before October 5, 2006*

    * The maximum vacation leave balance for employees hired before
      October 5, 2006 is 384 hours.
    * Any accrued vacation leave above 384 hours on midnight December
      31, 2010 will be forfeited.


***Important Information***
