An employee will continue to accrue vacation leave while he or she is receiving paid military leave, but he or she will not accrue vacation leave once paid leave has ended.
Reemployment of employees who wish to return to work after military leave will be handled in accordance with all applicable laws.
Kentucky State University reserves the right to deny a request for military leave if the service is voluntary and an employee's cumulative voluntary military service exceeds five (5) years.
