Recreation leave - calculating leave accruals
Staff do not receive annual leave in bulk at the end of the year,
instead it is received on a monthly basis. This means staff do not have
to wait until the end of the first year to take annual leave, they are
able to take it as it accrues.
For staff working full time (1.0 FTE)
annual leave is accrued (increased) each calendar month by 1.6667 full
time days1 to a maximum of 20 full time days each anniversary2 year.
For part time staff, annual leave is calculated by the following
formula:
1.667 full-time days x your current fraction x 12
months
The following table gives you a quick reference of yearly accruals
for the University's standard employment fractions.

Notes:
- A full-time day for an academic staff member equals 7 hours and
30 minutes (7.5 hours), for a general staff member equals 7 hours
and 21 minutes (7.35 hours)
- An anniversary year starts from the day the staff member
commenced service with the University, (eg - if they commenced
employment on the 20 June 2000 then they will have their full annual
leave entitlement on the 20 June 2001). NOTE: Employees who
commenced prior to 28th June 1998 will have entitlements accruing on
the 28th of each month due to the conversion from accruing annually
to accruing monthly.
