Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 5, § 17434 - Subsistence Allowances
A per diem allowance may be claimed pursuant to this section. Travel shall have been more than 10 miles from the employee's headquarters.
(a) In-state Travel.
Education Code Sections
1080(b),
1081 and
1942
provide that actual and necessary travel expenses may be paid to a county
superintendent and designated staff members in accordance with regulations
established by the county board of education subject to the following
requirements:
(1) The county board of
education shall adopt regulations providing for no greater than the actual and
necessary travel expenses of the county superintendent and designated staff
members.
(2) For those offices of
county superintendent of schools where the staff is comprised of a combination
of employees employed directly by the county superintendent and employees
assigned to the county superintendent by the county board of supervisors, the
county board of education may adopt the same travel and per diem rules for
employees of the county superintendent as the county board of supervisors has
adopted for their employees.
(b) Out of State Travel. For out of state
travel a county superintendent and designated staff members shall be authorized
only those actual and necessary travel expenses which are provided for by
regulations adopted by the county board of education.
(c) Lunch Allowance. On certain types of
one-day trips as, for example, trips routinely made for an extended period of
time to the same place or over the same route, the necessity for employees to
incur additional expenses for meals should be questioned. The person approving
the claim will determine the necessity for meal allowance in such cases
pursuant to regulations adopted by the county board of education.
(d) Meal Allowance. When an employee is
required to work by a supervisor more than two hours past the normal quitting
time (which requires working more than 10 hours) and it is unreasonable to
expect the employee to return to his or her residence for meals, reimbursement
may be allowed for actual cost of a meal not to exceed $5.00 for the evening
meal and up to $4.00 for all others. An additional meal allowance may be
allowed for each additional six hours worked; a total of up to three overtime
meal allowances in any 24-hour period may be allowed. No overtime meal will be
allowed if an employee also claims per diem.
