Title 5 - Administrative Personnel
(a) An employee who has been adversely affected by a disaster or emergency may make written application to his or her employing agency to become an emergency leave recipient. If an employee is not capable of making written application, a personal representative of the potential leave recipient may make written application on his or her behalf. (b) An employee who has a family member who has been adversely affected by a disaster or emergency may also make written application to his or her employing agency to become an emergency leave recipient. An emergency leave recipient may use donated annual leave to assist an affected family member, provided such family member has no reasonable access to other forms of assistance. (c) For the purpose of this subpart, an employee will be considered to be adversely affected by a major disaster or emergency if the disaster or emergency has caused severe hardship to the employee or a family member of the employee to such a degree that the employee's absence from work is required. (d) The employee's application must be accompanied by the following information concerning each potential leave recipient: (1) The name, position title, and grade or pay level of the potential emergency leave recipient; (2) A statement describing his or her need for leave from the emergency leave transfer program; (3) Any additional information that may be required by the potential leave recipient's employing agency.
