Slide2AGR Leave Update
Summary
Time away from duties and training is critical for the continued well-being of Soldiers. The Army provides a number of benefits to provide Soldiers opportunities for time away from their jobs.
Eligibility
Members of the Army Reserve serving on active duty or initial active duty for training or active duty training for a period of 30 or more consecutive days for which they are entitled to pay are eligible to participate in the various leave programs.
Benefit Highlights
The following sections summarize various types of leave available for active duty Soldiers. As with any job, mission requirements, duty assignment or training requirements may require Soldiers to work on certain holidays and weekends. These requirements may also impact the scheduling of annual leave.
Slide3AGR Leave Update
Annual
Leave
Active duty Soldiers earn 2.5 days of annual leave (vacation) for each month
of service
, for a total of 30 days per year. Currently, Soldiers can bank up to 75
days
of
leave
at the end of the fiscal year, but effective 30 September 2015
the
carry-over
provision
is reduced to 60 days at the end of the fiscal year.
Any
additional days above
60
days will be forfeited at the beginning of the
next
fiscal year (October 1). Each
Soldier
has an individual responsibility to
monitor
and manage their leave, and
current leave
balances are recorded on
the
Leave and Earnings Statement (LES), which can be
viewed
at
myPay
.
Increased Leave Accrual
The amount of leave allowed to be carried over into a new fiscal year
temporarily increased
from
60
days to 75 days effective 28 January 2008 until
30
September 2015.
All
leave accrued in excess
of
60 days on 30 SEP 15
will
be
lost on 1 OCT 15, unless
protected
by Special Leave Accrual (SLA).
Slide4AGR Leave Update
Special Leave Accrual
Soldiers serving in hostile fire or imminent danger pay areas
(
combat
zone
) for 120 days or more can accumulate and carry over up
to
120
days
of leave into the next fiscal year. SLA-protected leave
appears
in
the
Remarks section of Leave and Earnings Statements (LES)
as
"Combat Zone
LV
Carryover Bal" along with the expiration date. SLA
protection
ends on the
expiration
date or when the current leave
balance
drops below the maximum
authorized
without SLA.
By
law, 120 days is the most maximum leave that can be carried over into a new fiscal year with SLA protection
.
b
) SLA is the only mechanism by which more than 60 days can be carried over into a new fiscal year.
Slide5AGR Leave Update
Leave Sell Back
Enlisted personnel with more than 120 days of leave accrued may, on a
one-time basis, sell back up to 30 days of leave in excess of the 120-day
limit. Such leave sell back counts against the 60-day leave sell back
limitation during a Soldier's military career.
