If an individual is employed concurrently in two part-time Federal jobs, how is leave earned and used?
A – In general, no employee may receive basic pay from more than one position for more than a total of 40 hours of work in 1 calendar week (5 U.S.C. 5533). A part-time employee earns annual leave and sick leave on a pro-rata basis. (See 5 CFR 630.303 and 630.406.) Therefore, an employee who works concurrently in two part-time Federal positions earns annual and sick leave on a pro-rata basis for the hours worked in each part-time position. In addition, only the leave earned in a given part-time position may be used for absences from that position.
