If I am called to active military duty for a significant length of time, what types of paid leave are available to me?
Every employee is entitled to twenty-one paid work days of military leave in each federal fiscal year (October 1 through September 30). For longer military leaves, employees may choose to:

1) use accrued vacation leave, personal holiday, compensatory time, and/or PTO, as applicable;

2) go on an unpaid leave of absence without first using paid leaves; or

3) request contributions of vacation leave from other employees through the County’s leave sharing program (you must use your accrued vacation, PTO, and compensatory time before qualifying for shared leave).
