Leave sharing recipients must be a classified employee on the traditional accrual sick leave plan who has depleted their leave balances for health-related reasons, OR a classified employee in either the traditional accrual sick leave plan or the Virginia Sickness and Disability Program (VSDP) who has depleted their leave authorized for care of an ill or injured family member (parent, spouse, or child) and who is covered by the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA).

The recipient will use these donations as sick leave. It is a direct share program where leave donations are given from the donor to a specific recipient. It is not a leave bank. All qualifying full-time and part-time classified employees are eligible to become recipients. Leave sharing hours will be prorated for part-time classified employees.
