The leave is available to any permanent employee, may not exceed twelve weeks, and shall be approved by the appointing authority. The appointing authority may submit a written request with justification for an extension of an employee's leave to the commissioner. The appointing authority for an employee of the board of regents who is exempt from the civil service act may submit a written request with justification for an extension of the employee's leave to the Board of Regents. Leave of absence without pay may be granted to an employee even though all of the employee's accrued vacation leave has not been used. No leave credits may be earned during the authorized leave of absence without pay.</span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>&nbsp;</span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>Source:</span></b> 39 SDR 99, effective December 3, 2012.</span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>General Authority:</span></b> SDCL <A HREF="/statutes/DisplayStatute.aspx?Type=Statute&Statute=3-6C-17">3-6C-17</A>, <A HREF="/statutes/DisplayStatute.aspx?Type=Statute&Statute=3-6C-18">3-6C-18.</A></span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>Law Implemented:</span></b> SDCL <A HREF="/statutes/DisplayStatute.aspx?Type=Statute&Statute=3-6C-18">3-6C-18.</A></span></font></p> <p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>&nbsp;</span></font></p> </div> </body> </html>
