(4) time worked as an inmate.
(b) Time spent on
military leave and time off while receiving workers compensation wage
replacement for loss of work time shall be considered to be time worked in the

institution based on employment customs arising from an academic or school
calendar requiring less than a full calendar year of service, shall be
considered to be time worked in the classified service. However, length of
service based on this leave of absence shall not be transferable to other state
agencies. For the purposes of layoff, employees of these institutions shall be
credited only for actual time worked.
(d)
(1)
Length of service for computing vacation leave accrual rates and for layoff or
compensation purposes shall not be recalculated using prior versions of this

on record on December 17, 1995, or on the date the individual left state
service, whichever date is later.
(e) Authorized leave without pay over 30
consecutive days shall not count toward length of service. However, authorized
leave without pay for 30 consecutive days or less shall not be considered a
break in service.
(f) Increased
rates of vacation leave earnings based on length of service shall not be
retroactive.
(g) For purposes of
vacation leave accrual, layoff, and longevity bonus pay, the length of service
of any person who has retired from state service shall be reduced to zero, and
if the person later returns to state service, the length of service shall be
calculated on the same basis as that for a new hire.
