and the number of hours an employee is scheduled to work.
Sick Leave
Regular employees begin accruing sick leave the first day of employment. Accruals are based on the number of hours

of this system, employees are required to contribute 6% of their gross salary on a tax-deferred basis.
Deferred Compensation Plans
To further assist employees in saving for retirement, the City offers two supplemental retirement savings programs. These

portion of their salary on a tax-deferred basis to supplement their retirement benefits. These programs are the NC 401(k)
