TAFE SA Regulations 2026

The Chief Executive may grant a prescribed employee who provides evidence that they are absent from duty because of a disability accepted by the

Commonwealth Repatriation Commission as due to war service special leave with pay (not debited against sick leave credits) for a period not exceeding the leave standing to the credit of that employee under this regulation.

The special leave standing to the credit of a prescribed employee absent due to a disability arising from war service is as follows:

a non‑accumulative credit of 45 duty days credited on

1 July 1955 or on employment as a prescribed employee (whichever is the later); plus

a cumulative credit of 15 duty days credited on

1 July 1964, or on employment as a prescribed employee (whichever is the later) and on the anniversary of that date in each succeeding year to a maximum accumulation of 45 duty days at any one time under this paragraph, less the number of duty days of leave that have been taken by the employee under this regulation or a corresponding provision of the previous regulations, debited in accordance with subregulation (3).

The special leave standing to the credit of a prescribed employee under subregulation (2)(b)—

may only be taken after the special leave standing to the employee's credit under subregulation (2)(a) has been exhausted; and

re‑accumulates in accordance with subregulation (2)(b) if taken, but not so as to exceed the specified maximum accumulation.

Special leave granted under this regulation is in addition to any other leave to which a prescribed employee may be entitled.
