Up until recently only CSRS system employees received credit towards retirement for unused sick leave. It isn't uncommon for a federal employee with 30 or more years service to accrued in excess of one year, 2087 hours, of sick leave.
Employees are awarded up to 80 hours per year, with half of any unused balance at the end of the year rolling over to their unused sick leave account for possible future use. Sick Leave can be used for personal illness, family illness, and bereavement leave.
