BASIS OF GRANTING COMMUTATION OF ACCUMULATED LEAVE (CAL)

 

Section 37 of Civil Service Commission (CSC) Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 41 as amended by Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 14 Series of 1998

 

“ Any official / employee of the government who retires, voluntarily resigns, or is separated from the service and who is not otherwise covered by special law, shall be entitled to the commutation of his leave credits exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays without limitation and regardless of the period when the credits were earned.”

 

Section 38 of Civil Service Commission (CSC) Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 41 as amended by Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 14 Series of 1998

          “Request for payment must be brought within ten (10) years from the time the right of action accrues upon an obligation created by law.”

 

Section 39 of Civil Service Commission (CSC) Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 41 as amended by Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 14 Series of 1998

“Payment of terminal leave for purposes of retirement or voluntary resignation shall be based on the highest monthly salary received at anytime during his period of employment in the government service and not on his latest salary, unless the latter is the highest received by the retiree.

Section 40 of Civil Service Commission (CSC) Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 41 as amended by Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 14 Series of 1998

 

Computation of Terminal Leave. The terminal leave benefits shall be computed as follows: TLB = S X D X CF

 

          Where TLB  =  Terminal Leave Benefits

                     S     =  Highest monthly salary received

                     D     =  No. of Accumulated Vacation and Sick Leave Credits

                     CF   =  Constant Factor of .0478087

 

          The Constant Factor was derived from this Formula:

365    days in a year

104    Saturdays and Sundays in a year

10      Legal holidays (provided by EO 292) in a year

            12             =               12               =  .0478087 Sec 40 of CSC MC NO. 41                                                                                                                         as amended by CSC MC

365 – (104 +10)                    251                                         NO. 14 Series of 1999
