Leave Transfer (6.22.8)
Leave Transfer Between the State University and Community College
System and State Agencies
PROCEDURE
Any regular employee of any agency, office or department of
the State of Tennessee or of any State College or University who
leaves one of these employers for employment with another without
a break in service shall have all annual and sick leave transferred.
Moreover, if an employee leaves the State University and Community
College System Institutions/Board of Regents Central Office and
is reemployed with a state agency prior to his/her termination
date with the State University and Community College System, the
employee shall have all unused annual leave transferred/reinstated
to the employing agency and shall not be entitled to payment for
annual leave beginning with the date of reemployment. Any
payment for annual leave upon the termination which is later found
to have been in violation of this policy shall be repaid to the
State University and Community College System Institutions/Central
Office by the terminating employee.
When a former employee who has at least one full year of State
employment in good standing returns to fulltime service
with one of these employers, the employee shall be credited immediately
with all sick leave to which the employee was entitled at the
time of termination. The last employer shall be responsible for
certifying eligibility for this sick leave credit to the reemploying
agency, college or university.
If any teacher employed by a local school board in Tennessee leaves
the employment of that board in good standing and becomes a fulltime
Tennessee State University employee within six months of the date
of termination, upon certification of accrued and due sick leave
by the previous employer, the employee shall be immediately credited
with all sick leave to which he or she was entitled at the time
of the previous termination.
