TO PROVIDE THAT A STATE EMPLOYEE UNABLE TO USE ANNUAL LEAVE DUE TO A PERSONNEL SHORTAGE RESULTING FROM A REDUCTION IN FORCE AFTER JANUARY 1, 1993, MAY CARRY OVER UP TO TEN ADDITIONAL DAYS OF LEAVE IN THIS AND THE FOLLOWING YEAR WHICH MAY BE USED OR COUNTED IN THE LUMP SUM PAYMENT FOR LEAVE BUT MUST NOT BE USED TO REACH RETIREMENT; AND TO PROVIDE THAT A STATE AGENCY TAKING A REDUCTION IN FORCE MUST TAKE AT LEAST A PROPORTIONATELY EQUIVALENT REDUCTION IN STATE OFFICES AS IN OUTLYING OFFICES.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. Notwithstanding Sections 8-11-610 and 8-11-620 of the 1976 Code, a state employee who is not permitted to take annual leave because of a personnel shortage resulting from a reduction in force after January 1, 1993, may carry over up to fifty-five days of annual leave for 1993 and up to sixty-five days for 1994. The additional twenty days of annual leave allowed to be carried over may be used or counted in the employee's lump sum payment for unused leave but may not be used at the end of the employee's state service to reach thirty years of employment.
SECTION 2. If a state agency takes a reduction in force after January, 1993, in any of its county, regional, or otherwise decentralized offices, it must take a reduction in force in its state or centralized office that is proportionately the same as, if not greater than, the aggregate reduction taken in its decentralized offices.
SECTION 3. This joint resolution takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
