Except as provided in sections 599.609 and 599.776.1(b) of these regulations, in the application of Government Code sections 19143, 19849.9, 19856.1, 19858.1, 19859, 19861, 19863.1, 19997.4 and sections 599.682, 599.683, 599.685, 599.687, 599.737, 599.738, 599.739, 599.740, 599.746, 599.747, 599.787, 599.791, 599.840 and 599.843 of these regulations, an employee who has 11 or more working days of service in a monthly pay period shall be considered to have a complete month, a month of service, or continuous service. In the application of Government Code section 19837, an employee shall be considered to have a month of state service if the employee either: (1) has had 11 or more working days of service in a monthly pay period; or (2) would have had 11 or more working days of service in a monthly pay period but was laid off or on a leave of absence for the purpose of lessening the impact of an impending layoff.
Except for absences that are counted under this section, absences from state service resulting from a temporary or permanent separation for more than 11 consecutive working days which fall into two consecutive qualifying pay periods shall disqualify one of the pay periods. Absences from the payroll that may be counted as state service under this section shall be counted only at the request of the employee and shall not exceed 12 months of state service regardless of the number or combinations of absences involved.
Service or credits earned on or after January 1, 1969, shall be accumulated under the provisions of this section. Service or credits prior to that date shall be accumulated under the rules in effect on December 31, 1968, except that in the application of Government Code section 19997.4 and sections 599.837 and 599.843 of these regulations all seniority credit shall be accumulated under the provisions of this section. In either instance, service or credit may be accumulated during appropriate absences, as described in this section, and the amount accumulated will be based on the time the employee would have worked if not absent.
