DAILY UPDATE #251 -- 4/26/2021
- NEW ITEMS
- UPDATE ON EMPLOYEES WHO ARE CLOSE TO THE VACATION CAP
At Principal Office Hours on Friday, April 23, the question was asked about what to do with school site paraeducators and others who are close to the vacation cap. The concern was that if they were forced to take vacation, then there is no coverage for the site due to lack of subs. Per Acacia Thede, employees close to the cap should not be forced to take vacation to bring the balance down, if it causes an issue with coverage (i.e., no subs available). Employees who are over the cap in August 2021, will be paid out this year for vacation over the cap. If the site or department does not have the funds to cover these expenses, they were directed to work with the district officials to have the funding covered. Please refer any questions to Acacia Thede, Chief Human Resources Officer. AASD is simply reporting what was said during Office Hours.
