This Division sets out basic recreation leave entitlements and conditions.

5.4.8 Basic recreation leave credit

  1. A member may accrue up to a maximum credit of 25 days basic recreation leave a year.

  2. Leave credit accrues fortnightly and is credited on each payday.

  3. Fortnightly leave credits for a member not subject to a flexible service determination are calculated using the following formula.

    Fortnightly leave credits = (25 / 365) x (14 - A)

    Where:

    A is the number of days in a fortnight of non-effective service.

  4. Fortnightly leave credits for a member subject to a flexible service determination are calculated using the following formula.

    Fortnightly leave credits = (14 x (25 / 365)) x (A - B / 80)

    Where:

    A is the number of hours in a fortnight in the member's pattern of service.

    B is the number of hours in a fortnight of non-effective service.
