MATTER  OF

DIGEST:


DATE: Rovember 8, 1978


Charles L. Manger--Retroactive substitution
of sick leave for annual leave


Employee entitle' to use sick leave
requestedthat annual leave be charged
instead. Subsequently, employee desired
to retroactively substitute sick leave
for the annual leave charged. Once annual
leave is granted, an employee nay not
thereafter have sach leave chak'ged to
sick leave and be recredited with the
amount of annual leave previously charged.


     This action is at the request of Mr. Don Omans,
Authorized Certifying Officer, Natiunal Park Service,
U.S. Department of the Interior, for an advance decision
concerning the request of Mr. Charles L. Mangers to
substitute 208 hours of sick leave for an equal amount
of annualleave used during the 1976 leas'a year. We
understaid that the purpose of this requast is to make
the annual leave available for restoration under Public
Law 93-181, approved December 14, 1973, 5 U.S.C. s 6304f1)
(1976).

     Mr. Dmans states that the Park Service's .investi-
gation revealed that Mr.'Mancers requested annual leave
on October 11, 1976, because of a scheduled physical
examination. As a result of findings made-at the exam-
inati i..Mr. Mangers was reouired to be hospitalized.
During the per±od of hoApitalization, he was carried
in an annualleave status. Copies of the leave cards
show:that he returned to work from November 1, 1976,
thrugh November 26, 1976, but thathe again was placed
on annu51 leave on November 29, JJ r He remained
on annual leave until -December 20, £976, when he
requested that he be placedron sick leave. While the
record is not clear, we assume that Mt. Mangers aqain
requested annual leave for the period beginning on
November 29, 1976.

     Mr. Manqers explains the circumstances surrounding
his original reguest that he be placed on annual leave
at the time he was hospitalized, as follows:
