RULE §5.49Longevity Pay

(k) Contract for less than 12 calendar months. An individual eligible to accrue lifetime service credit who works for a state agency under a formal written contract for less than 12 calendar months each year accrues 12 calendar months of credit each year if the individual is constantly under contract during the calendar months the individual does not work. The individual is constantly under contract if the individual's contract for the next work period is entered into before the end of the existing work period, even though the individual will not work during the interim period.

(l) Military service. If an individual leaves a position that accrues lifetime service credit (or that would have accrued lifetime service credit had the longevity pay law been in effect when the individual left the position) to serve in the military and the individual is reemployed with the state after completing that service in accordance with any applicable federal or state veterans' reemployment law, the individual accrued lifetime service credit during that service, even if the individual is on leave without pay during the individual's period of military service.
