Seniority Accumulation (i) Part-time employees shall have their seniority expressed on the basis of number of hours worked in the bargaining unit.

(b) The maximum number of days of sick leave which may be awarded to an employee during any consecutive twenty (20) year period of service shall not exceed 3840 hours.
