calendar week. During unpaid leave, an employee shall not accrue vacation or sick leave benefits, nor shall said time be considered service time. Holiday in lieu payments for which an employee would otherwise be eligible shall be adjusted on a pro-rata basis to reflect an employee's leave time. 15.2 Floating Holiday Fire Prevention Personnel will receive three (3) floating holidays per year with pay as follows: Floating holidays for eligible employees shall be credited and taken in accordance with the regulations set forth in this section. Each payroll calendar year eligible employees will be credited with floating holidays at the rate of 24 (twenty-four)hours for each 40-hour employee per year. Employees not in a pay status at the beginning of the payroll calendar year will not be credited with floating holidays until their return to work. In such cases, floating holidays will be prorated for the year once the employee returns to work. New employees who join the City after the start of the calendar year will receive floating holidays on a prorated basis. Floating holidays are not cumulative and must be taken in the same year it is credited. 15.3 Jury Leave Each regular or probationary employee of the Department who is required to serve as a trial juror is entitled to be absent from his/her duties with the Department during the "period" of such service or while necessarily being in court as the result of such a call. When the employee's services are "not required" or upon "dismissal" from court, the employee shall return directly to work to complete the balance of the workday or shift. The employee is allowed his or her regular salary provided the employee compensates the Department for any fees received for service other than travel pay. If the employee does not compensate the Department for such fees, the salary shall be lowered by the amount of such fees. For the purposes of this section: "Period" shall mean that period of time from the moment the employee is chosen as a juror until he/she is dismissed by the judge. Services that are "not required" shall mean those portions of time that an employee who is a prospective juror, has not yet been chosen as a juror and has been released for the day but is required to return at a later date for further consideration as a prospective juror. "Dismissal" from court is when the judge dismisses the employee as a juror or prospective juror. 15.4 Leaves Resulting from Subpoena Leaves of absence with pay shall be granted to a person while going to and from court and answering a subpoena as a witness on behalf of the Fire Department.
