Part-time per annum, per diem, per session, hourly, and seasonal employees who are not covered by the Career and Salary Plan Leave Regulations are entitled to the benefits provided in applicable collective bargaining agreements, Comptroller's Determinations, the "Leave Regulations for Management Employees," or those provided by law.

II. Full-Time Per Diem Employees

A. Per diem employees in positions covered by the Career and Salary Plan Leave Regulations, who have worked the appropriate number of hours in the work week for the equivalent per annum title, but in no case less than 35 hours per week, for at least two continuous years immediately preceding July 1, and who continue to meet the above stated conditions, are entitled to the benefits provided to full-time per annum employees under the leave regulations, except as otherwise specified therein.

A. Employees covered by the Career and Salary Plan Leave Regulations, whether full-time or part-time, whose employment is expected to be temporary and limited to all or part of the months of June, July, August and September, and who are designated as summer employees or summer replacements, do not accrue annual leave as stated in Section 2.7 of the leave regulations. However, sick leave is accrued in accordance with either Section 3.0 or Section 6.4 of the leave regulations.
