PART 630--ABSENCE AND LEAVE--Table of Contents

Sec. 630.210  Uncommon tours of duty.

    (a) An agency may require that an employee with an uncommon tour of 
duty accrue and use leave on the basis of that uncommon tour of duty. 
The leave accrual rates for such employees shall be directly 
proportional (based on the number of hours in the biweekly tour of duty 
and the accrual rate of the corresponding leave category) to the 
standard leave accrual rates for employees who accrue and use leave on 
the basis of an 80-hour biweekly tour of duty. One hour (or appropriate 
fraction thereof) of leave shall be charged for each hour (or 
appropriate fraction thereof) of absence from the uncommon tour of duty.
    (b) When an employee is converted to a different tour of duty for 
leave purposes, his or her leave balances shall be converted to the 
proper number of hours based on the proportion of hours in the new tour 
of duty compared to the former tour of duty.
    (c) An agency must require that firefighters compensated under 
Sec. 550.1303(a) of this chapter accrue and use leave on the basis of 
the applicable uncommon tour of duty.
