If I leave employment with the State (not related to discipline issues) and return to a position covered by the Classified System Personnel Rules, What happens to my service date?
Employees returning to a Rules-covered position after a break in service of less than five calendar years may have their service date adjusted for the period of absence, meaning the employee will earn leave at the same rate as when they left state employment. Check with your agency Personnel/Human Resources contact as some agency discretion may be applied in certain instances. Contract covered employees should refer to questions/answers provided by the AS Employee Relations Division.
