Are members who have elected a Retirement Option eligible for Study Leave?
Members who wish to take and are eligible for a study leave during their Retirement Option must indicate this when declaring their Option. The study leave must be taken within the appointment period of the Option such that the requirement to return to work for one year after the leave is concluded is honoured, as per the Collective Agreement provisions on Leaves of Absence. Note that members do not accrue credit towards study leave while working in a Retirement Option.
