Is “use or lose” and/or restored annual leave included in the projected lump sum leave period?
Yes. An employee must receive a lump-sum payment for accumulated and currently accrued annual leave to which he or she is entitled on the date of separation. This includes all “use or lose” and restored annual leave to the employee’s credit on the date of separation. Annual leave that has not yet been forfeited must be included in a lump-sum payment.
