Such additional payment is contingent upon ongoing performance of said duties and shall be discontinued or

2.6. Part-time Leave
Qualified Part -Time employees (those who consistently work 32 or more hours perweek) shall accrue Part -Time Leave
on a pay period by pay period basis. Part -Time Leave shall be identified by the code ,PTL,, and can be used to
receive pay for any bona -fide absence from the work place, be it due to illness, vacation, personal reasons or
otherwise.
When PTL is used for sick leave purposes, guidelines as outlined in the Memorandum of Understanding between the
City and The Azusa City Employees Association will prevail. Requests for all other leave must be pre -approved by the
department head (or designee).
Employees who are appointed to temporary assignments do not qualify for this benefit
PTL shall not be used for absence due to an injury sustained on the job, either at the City of Azusa or elsewhere
Accrual of PTL shall be predicated upon a 10 -week ,look back period,,, To qualify to receive a pay period PTL
accrual, the employee must be a part-time employee who has been ,on the payroll,, for the entire ten (10) weeks in
the -look back period,,, and must have been paid for at least three -hundred twenty (320) hours during the -look back
period.,, Compensatory Time, PTL, Overtime (at 1.0 times the number of hours worked), and any similar existing or
future pay types shall count towards the hours requirement. Accrual of PTL shall not begin before completion of the
tenth (10th) week of employment.
The amount of PTL accrual per pay period shall be the pro -rata portion of the City, s standard sick leave accrual for a
full-time employee that the employee • s pay period hours represent when compared to full time work. The accrual shall
be determined by multiplying 4.6154 hours by a fraction, the numerator of which is the hours during the pay period for
which the employee will be paid [Compensatory Time, PTL, Overtime (at 1.0 times the number of hours worked), and
any similar existing or future pay types, but not more than 80 hours] and the denominator of which is 80 hours.
The accrual of PTL by an employee shall not be construed to ensure property rights of any kind, including but not
limited to the cash value of the accrued leave. Likewise, employees shall not be eligible to receive any type of
intermediate cash -out or payoff of PTL upon termination.
If a part-time employee is promoted to a full-time employee, any accrued unused PTL as of the effective date of the
promotion will remain -on the books- and will be available for normal use by the full-time employee on an hour -for -
hour basis.
