As you are already aware, the most recent round of contract
negotiations resulted in agreement to permit bargaining unit employees* in the
service of the state to receive credit for prior service with the State, the
Ohio National Guard, or any political subdivision of the State for the purposes
of computing vacation leave in accordance with Ohio Revised Code section 9.44.
These provisions become effective July 1, 2010. The contractual language also
provides that the new vacation accrual rates shall take effect starting the pay
period immediately following the pay period that includes the date the
Department of Administrative Services processes and approves the employee’s
request.
Delta Dental has a PPO program (for maximum benefit savings) and a
Premier program. The program benefits you receive is determined by
the dentist you choose to use. Please check to ensure your dentist
is covered under one of these programs.
You can still receive benefits by using a dentist that is not listed in
either of these programs, but it will mean MORE out of pocket money for
you!
