An employee in the final year of service may with the approval of the appointing officer elect to receive a cash payment in lieu of vacation due at the time of separation, provided that the appointment and payment of a replacement for the period of time representing such cash payment in lieu of vacation is not required. In lieu of such cash payment an employee who separates from City and County service and who without interruption in service is appointed to any governmental agency whose employees are eligible for membership in the San Francisco City and County Retirement System may elect to transfer such accumulated vacation to such agency if the agency rule or regulation permits the crediting of such accumulated vacation. (Amended by Ord. 182-85, App. 4/12/85)

An employee who is absent from duty because of temporary disability may use his or her vacation allowance to supplement disability benefits; provided, that when the vacation allowance payment is added to the disability benefits payable under the Workers' Compensation or State Disability Insurance Laws, the employee's bi-weekly payment will not exceed the normal salary of the employee for the regular work schedule effective at the commencement of the disability. An employee desiring to use his or her vacation allowance to supplement State Disability Insurance benefits shall, within seven calendar days following the first day of absence, and on a form provided by the Civil Service Commission, so inform his or her appointing officer or designated representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an employee receiving temporary workers' compensation disability benefits may accrue vacation hours in excess of the maximum accrual permitted pursuant to Section 16.12(e). Upon the cessation of the employee's receipt of temporary disability benefits the employee shall receive a cash payment for any vacation hours accrued in excess of the number the employee was permitted to accrue pursuant to Section 16.12(e). (Amended by Ord. 182-85, App. 4/12/85)

The Controller shall establish procedures for the method of payment of salaries to employees entitled to vacation from service in two or more departments of the City and County.
