What happens for an employee who elects bonus leave and then after May 31 transfers to an agency where the leave option is not permitted?
This could be resolved in several ways, including: (1) the employee could use the bonus leave before the effective date of the transfer; (2) the new agency could permit the employee to use the bonus leave; (3) the employee may have to forego the bonus leave. Such situations need to be worked out on a case-by-case basis with regard to both the needs of the agency and the reasonable expectations of the employee. The hiring agency must fully discuss the matter with the employee before the employee makes the decision to accept the new position. Agencies should document these conversations and agreements to avoid misunderstanding.
