When an employee in an FTE position reduces his work hours from full-time to part-time, what happens to his sick leave balance?
The employees sick leave balance must be converted to the new average workday.

Example: An employee worked a 7.5-hour workday as a full-time employee (37.5- hour workweek) and had a sick leave balance of 20 days (or 150 hours). If this employee reduces his work hours to 30 hours a week, his new average workday is 6 hours. Divide the 150 hours of sick leave by the 6-hour average workday, and the employees converted sick leave balance is 25 days (or 150 hours). Note: If this change results in an employee having a maximum accumulation in excess of 180 average workdays in the new part-time status, as of the effective date of the change, the employee will not forfeit the excess. The employee will retain this excess leave which is the maximum amount the employee may carry over in future years. If the employee subsequently reduces the amount of such le
