A JOINT RESOLUTION TO FORGIVE ABSENCES OF CERTAIN STATE EMPLOYEES OF JANUARY 13, 14, AND 15, 1982, DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER, AND TO PROVIDE COMPENSATORY TIME FOR CERTAIN STATE EMPLOYEES.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

Absences forgiven

Section 1. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no state employee who was absent from work on January 13, 1982, or during the afternoon of January 14, 1982, or any part thereof, and who shall certify to his employer that such absence was solely due to inclement weather, shall be docked pay or leave entitlements on account of such absence; provided, however, that state employees who work in those counties which the Governor declares to have been adversely affected by inclement weather on January 13, 14, and 15, 1982, and who certify to their employer that such absence was solely due to the inclement weather, shall not be docked pay or leave entitlements on account of absences from work on these days; and provided, further, that any state employee who worked during those days for which they would have qualified for an excused absence as provided above shall be given compensatory time for the amount of time they worked.

Time effective

Section 2. This act shall take effect upon the approval by the Governor.
