Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) FSAs can be set up for Health or Dental Care expenses and/or Dependent Care expenses, allowing an employee to set aside a predetermined amount of money on a pre-tax basis and be reimbursed for eligible expenses under the IRS code. Annual (Vacation) Leave Permanent Part-Time Employees accrue leave on a pro-rated basis. Annual leave cannot be used during an employee's first six months of employment. The Personnel Rules & Regulations, departmental approval procedures, and/or any applicable collective bargaining agreement should be referred to for details.
