7.         The Commission approved two weeks vacation plus 5 floating holidays, with one week being banked on your starting date and the other week accruing through the year as opposed to the standard two weeks for the first five years of employment based on a per pay accrual.  After October 2003 the vacation will increase to three weeks earned at the normal accrual rate.   

8.         Sick time is accrued at the rate of 3.08 hours per pay with one week being banked on your starting date.  Upon termination one quarter of total accumulated time is paid to the employee based on an 80-day maximum (1/4 equaling 20 days actual pay).
