3.0.1. For the purposes of this plan, an absence without pay is an absence that is provided for in the employee’s conditions of employment and authorized by the employee’s employer, for which the employee does not receive pay, and during which the employee would have been expected to perform or could have performed work had it not been for the absence.
The Government may, by regulation, determine any other absence that constitutes an absence without pay and for which, if applicable, the absent person is considered an employee.
