Maximum annual leave hours accrued as per policy?

Maximum annual leave hours accrued as per policy?

• A. Article 12 Sec 3
• B. Article 12 Sec 2
• C. Article 10 Sec 3
• D. Article 9 Sec 3

Answer: (A)

The key idea is that there is a cap on how much annual leave you can have in your balance, and this cap is set in the policy section that specifically deals with accrual limits. That section states the exact maximum number of hours you may accrue and carry. Once you hit that cap, further leave accrual stops until some leave is used, keeping staffing and budgeting in balance. Other sections describe how quickly you earn leave (the accrual rate) or rules about carryover, payout, or different types of leave. They don’t establish the ceiling on your total leave balance, so they aren’t the source you’d cite for the maximum hours. So the section that explicitly sets the maximum accrual is the authoritative reference for this question.
