(a) Each officer or Board or other appointing authority shall assign vacations and may establish and maintain a vacation schedule for each year, giving due regard in each case to the request of the employee, subject, however, to the right of such appointing authority to plan work under the appointing authority’s control and to approve and assign vacations when the employee can be reasonably spared; provided, that when such appointing authority notwithstanding an employee’s request, has failed or refused to assign a vacation prior to the time necessary to prevent expiration of any unused portion of accrued vacation credit, such employee may absent the themself without penalty so as to avoid losing any vacation credit. Upon the approval of such appointing authority, any accrued and credited vacation time computed pursuant to Section 4.245 may be taken in increments of less than a full vacation, but not less than one (1) day, except for the reasons set forth in Section 4.112 of this Code.
(b) Each department, office or bureau shall furnish the Controller a detailed record of vacation taken. The record shall include the name of the employee, the class, and the number of days or hours and the dates when vacation is taken. The Controller shall maintain for each department, office or bureau the balance of vacation remaining to be taken.
