Expiration Rules for Earned Compensatory Time

When you create a compensatory plan, you need to select an expiration rule to define if the earned compensatory time is subject to expiration.

There are four expiration rules available for you to choose from:

  • Acquisition date

  • End of acquisition pay period

  • End of acquisition week

  • No expiration

Acquisition Date

Compensatory time expires in a defined amount of time from the acquisition date. For example, if the compensatory time is earned on December 22 and the expiration time frame is defined as six months, the compensatory time expires on June 22.

End of Acquisition Pay Period

Compensatory time expires in a defined amount of time from the end of the pay period. For example, if the compensatory time is earned on December 22, the current pay period is December 16 to December 31, and the expiration time frame is six months, the compensatory time expires on June 30.

End of Acquisition Week

Compensatory time expires in a defined amount of time from the end of the week the compensatory time is earned. For example, if the compensatory time is earned on December 22, which is the week of December 17 to December 23, and the expiration time frame is six months, the compensatory time expires on June 23 since the end of the acquisition week is December 23.

No Expiration

The compensatory time earned is not subject to expiration.
