1 personal day. (8 hours)
3 sick days. (24 hours)
If you dont use your sick days, they will cut you a check for 24 hours pay at the end of the year.
No time off can be held over to the next year, all must be taken!!

Also, the sick days are known as discretionary days and can be used in one-hour increments. For example, A emergency arises and you need the day off. Call two hours prior to your shift start unless its an immediate emergency on your way to work. Lets say you can go without a full 8 hours day of pay, you can ask for an hour, two, three hours, up to 8 hours maximum.

Article 25
Benefits
SECTION 2. Discretionary Days
Effective upon ratification, full-time employees shall be eligible to receive three (3) discretionary personal days (24 hours) each calendar year. These days may be used in scheduling time off for any purpose, including illness, appointments, care of family members, observance of religious holidays, etc. This time may be taken in one-hour increments or as a whole day (8 hours maximum). Except for emergency situations, discretionary time must be scheduled and approved in advance by management. Unused time related to these discretionary personal days will be paid out at a rate equivalent to the normal hourly rate at the end of the year. New employees entering a full-time job classification after ratification will receive these days on January 1 following one (1) year of employment.
You might want to show your Shop Steward this part of the contract that says we can take our discretionary days in one hour increments.
Someone up there might want to give the shop steward a copy of the contract.:holysheep:
Hell, you might not even want to use your discretionary time this way but the contract allows you to do so. Spread the word around the terminal and show your steward the contract that reads it.
Keep us updated.

We are also allowed to break up one weeks vacation to use as separate days. I do this sometimes as I get 5 weeks paid vacation. The remainder 4 weeks must be taken in full week increments.
