Enrollment must be completed within the first 31 days of employment. The benefits you select will be effective no later than the 1st of the month following your first day at work.
Leave Pay
All leave is prorated and based on actual time employed. Each year, employees may receive up to 40 hours of state personal leave, which may be used for any reason. In addition, each year employees who work at least 25 hours per week receive local sick leave. The amount of leave is dependent on the number of months you are scheduled to work during the year. Leave guidelines for employees are as follows:
|
12 Month Employees |
May receive up to 56 hours of local sick leave; as well as 80 hours of vacation (then 120 hours of vacation after 5 years of employment). |
|
11 Month Employees |
May receive up to 48 hours of local sick leave |
|
10 Month Employees |
May receive up to 40 hours of local sick leave |
Any local sick leave not used during the contract year is carried forward and will accumulate up to 400 hours. You can view your leave balances via the Employee Service Center (ESC). Should you leave PISD and work for another Texas public school district, your state leave will be transferred. Local leave, however, is not transferable. More information can be found in the PISD board policies DEC (legal) and DEC (local) regarding the leave provisions offered to employees. Please visit /Page/1187 for further information.
