An employee using shared leave under these rules continues to be classified as a state employee and receives the same treatment in respect to salary, wages, and employee benefits as the employee would normally receive if using accrued vacation leave or sick leave.
Employees who, during their probationary period or trial service period, go on shared leave must have their probationary period or trial service period extended by the number of calendar days they are on shared leave.
