Request for Home Leave Travel (Paper form)

Off-Line Certification Form

Home Leave Travel Record Card

UNALL

Explanatory Notes

The First leg of travel considered HL period will be charged to the annual leave balance less allowable travel time.
The HL request should be submitted in advance of travel.
Second Leg of travel will be considered under Monetized travel.

For calculating the costs of the tickets for a Home Leave travel in conjunction with reassignment, the first leg of the travel will be processed in accordance with Home Leave travel procedures but at 100 percent of the cost of the unrestricted economy fare by the least costly scheduled air carrier and by the most direct route.

The second leg of the travel will be processed in accordance with the procedures for monetization of reassignment travel.

The travel entitlement from the Home Leave destination to the newly assigned duty station is to be based on the travel time from the current duty station, to the new duty station. When the travel time between the current duty station and the new duty station is less than 9 hours, the entitlement for the travel from the HL city to the new duty station is in economy class without regard to the actual travel time between the two cities.

For purposes of calculating the cost, the "prime travel" is the less costly and unrestricted economy class air fare for travel between the current duty station and the place of reassignment.

The “additional cost for HL” is the fare difference between the “prime travel” and the unrestricted economy class air fare to travel from the current duty station to the place of HL.

Step

Template/Guideline

eServices

Explanatory Notes

Absence should be approved in accordance with the office’s leave plan
After approving the request for HL, the supervisor sends it to the HR focal point via:

-for staff using the leave module in UNALL an automated message will go to the respective HR focal point (HQ based staff, HR focal point is BES in GSSC; CO based staff HR Focal point is HR in Country office); or
-a manual form for staff or scenarios not covered by eServices.

Step

Approval by HR focal point after verifying eligibility and calculating credit points accrued

Responsible Party

BES/GSSC

Template/Guideline

Explanatory Notes

The HR Focal point checks staff member and eligible family eligibility for HL Travel.
The HR focal point refer to the HL Checklist for review of eligibility
The HR Focal point approves the HL request in UNALL or form as applicable and insert/adjust for the allowable Travel time
Staff member is notified of the approval of eligibility
The staff member must hold international appointment: PA, FTA or TA (only international TA holders who serve at a 12-month HL cycle duty station and who areexceptionally extended beyond the first 364 days may be eligible). He/she should be residing in a country other than his/her UN-recognized nationality or place of Home Leave. Note: If the staff member is a permanent resident in the country of the duty station, he/she is not entitled to HL while serving in the duty station.
The staff member must have the required HL points prior to the date of travel (i.e. minimum 24 points for regular HL or at least 12 points for advance HL). Staff members eligible for HL accrue service credit towards it from the date of appointment:

-in a duty station with a 24-month HL cycle: one point per month (i.e. 24 credit points in two years of service); or
-in duty station with a 12-month HL cycle: two points per month (i.e. 24 credit points in one year of service);
-arrival 1st to 15th of the month: accrual at new duty station's points rate; and
arrival between 16th and end of month: accrual at previous duty station's points rate.
-When an entitlement becomes effective between the 16th and the end of the month, the counting of HL points starts from the following month.

There should be six months of service remaining after the staff member returns to his/her duty station from HL travel, or three months if serving in a duty station with a 12-month HL cycle
For staff members serving at a duty station with a 24-month HL cycle, at least 12 months should elapse between one HL and the next. For staff members serving at a 12-month duty station, at least six months should elapse.
Security clearance is required for all official travel including HL travel through the UNDSS Travel Request Information Process (TRIP) system.
Advance HL may be authorized when the staff member has accrued 12 points. A negative point balance will be recorded in the HL card. The balance cannot exceed 12 negative points. To become eligible for the next HL, the staff member must overcome the negative points balance and then accrue 24 points, as the granting of advance HL does not bring forward the date of entitlement to subsequent HL.
If the staff member defers HL, he/she may accrue a maximum of 48 points. If the staff member does not take HL when he/she reaches 48 points, he/she stops accruing points until he/she exercises the entitlement.
The entitlement may be advanced or deferred when compatible with the needs of the Organization or staff member’s concerns. Requests must specify the reasons for seeking advance or deferred entitlement.
If the appointment of a staff member is extended, and, as a result, he/she becomes entitled to HL, his/her service credit towards HL will begin to accrue from the date of initial appointment.
A staff member in permanent residence status who takes up non-immigrant status in the country of his/her duty station is granted entitlement to HL and accrues service credit for such leave from the date on which non-immigrant status is acquired, provided that eligibility has otherwise been established.
When a staff member is transferred or seconded from an international organization participating in the common system, any entitlement to HL is determined as though all his/her previous service had been with UNDP.
When a staff member is loaned, any HL entitlement is determined by the releasing organization as though the staff member were still serving with that organization at the duty station to which he/she is assigned.

The absence is charged to the staff member's annual leave balance less the allowable travel time.
The absence is recorded elsewhere in absence module either SLWOP, ML, SLWFP or other.
The staff member must inform BES/JPOSC if the travel is postponed, cancelled or if one or more of the travellers are not travelling as this will lead to an adjustment of the lump sum.

Step

Update/adjust absence/allowable travel time in the system

Responsible Party

Template/Guideline

Explanatory Notes

If HL is requested through UNALL, adjust HL period for allowable travel time if needed.
If HL is requested manually:

-enter HL taken;

-enter periods of allowable travel time (if applicable); and

-Deduct 24 points.

For travel on both the outward and the return journey on HL or family visit, staff members who opt for the lump sum payment for their HL or family visit travel shall be granted a fixed amount of travel time not chargeable to annual leave determined on the basis of the most direct flight available as follows:

-One day for each journey of less than 10 hours;

-Two days for each journey of 10 hours or longer but less than 16 hours; and

-Three days for each journey of 16 hours or more.

The travel time is approved in accordance with UNDP travel policy and shall include any authorized rest period or stopover made by the staff member to or from the place of HL within the home country.

When the staff member opts for the travel lump sum, travel time shall be applied to working days regardless of when the travel actually took place.
When travel is arranged by the Organization, no compensation in terms of travel time applies for travel undertaken on a weekend or official holiday.

Step

Verification/ submission of supporting documents after completion of HL

Responsible Party

Staff

Template/Guideline

Explanatory Notes

The staff member must certify that travel has taken place as authorized and must upload scanned copies of supporting documents within 30 days of returning from HL in UNALL.
Supporting documents may include but not limited to: used airline tickets and boarding passes, in hard copy or electronic form, or national passport containing the dates of arrival and departure from the country to which a particular home leave travel was authorized. If for some reason, such documents are not available, copy of credit card/bank statement together with invoice should be submitted instead. If travelling by car, proof of travel will be any evidence showing that travel took place, such as stamped passports and receipts of payments for road tolls, fuel etc.
If the staff member has not certified home leave travel and provided supporting documents within 90 days of return from home leave travel, the lump sum will be recovered.
GSSC will conduct spot checks for the compliance on the requirement to certify and to upload proof of travel upon completed HL Travel on a regular basis.
Office of Audit and Investigations (OAI) and/or UN Board of External Auditors may spot check the compliance as part of their audits as well.
A Home Leave payment cannot be issued unless the previous Home Leave has been certified.

Prepare and send letter to bank to open Zero Balance Account (ZBA). Request appropriate payment and reporting mechanisms for the account and ensure that all mechanisms are functioning after account is opened

Responsible Party

Treasurer,Cash Manager and treasury System Analyst

Template/Guideline

Explanatory Notes

Ensure timely reporting through Online Banking Platforms, Positive Pay (for Bank America) daily bank statement import to Quantum, Fed Wire and ACH payment ability

Step

Country Office uses the Zero Balance account to fund local currency needs by self –replenishment and make supplier/staff payments. Replenishments and supplier/staff payments are done by checks or Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT). Country offices should use HQ bank accounts not ZBA to receive contributions and reimbursements from other UN Agencies and staff.

Responsible Party

Template/Guideline

Explanatory Notes

All payments from the ZBA must be created and approved in Quantum before they are sent out to supplier/staff. All receipts to ZBA must be booked in Quantum within one business day. Tardy booking of ZBA transactions will delay and complicate ZBA bank reconciliation

Step

ZBA’s will have intraday net debit or credit balances. Where there is a net debit balance, the balance at the end of the day is brought to zero by a transfer from the ZBA Master Account to the ZBA. Where a ZBA has a net credit balance at the end of the day, this credit balance is transferred to the Master Account to bring the ZBA balance to zero. These end-of-day transfers are automatically done by the bank holding the Master ZBA and accounted for by Quantum after the bank statements are uploaded into Quantum. Uploads are normally done one business day after the transaction date recorded by the bank.

Responsible Party

Template/Guideline

Explanatory Notes

Timely bank reconciliations will identify errors and anomalies

Step

The Master ZBA is funded daily by Treasury to ensure that sufficient funds are available to offset daily total net disbursements by country offices. Country offices must inform Treasury of any payment for USD 500,000(or Euro equivalent) or more from their ZBA in order to prevent an overdraft in the Master ZBA.

Responsible Party

Procedures for PPCF are the same as PCF Procedures except for the key differences listed below:

Authority is delegated to the RR only (not to be further delegated) to appoint a holder of Personnel Services Agreement (NPSA/IPSA) as the Custodian for PPCF. When the PPCF Custodian is a NPSA/IPSA, the replenishment request must be reviewed and approved by the Operations Manager and above, not by the Project Manager or the manager for the project office. (Refer to further guidance in ICF)
The CO's main office is required to review and approve the PPCF monthly APJV and the Operations Manager must certify the monthly reconciliation.
If the total of all PPCFs (whether one PPCF or multiple PPCFs) required is higher than the maximum level, the Head of Office must send the request to Treasurer for approval (see Annex 5: Request for Treasury Approval).
The GL Account for Project Petty Cash Fund_PPCF is 16106.
The chart fields ('COA') for PPCF AP non-PO Invoice, APJV and AR Direct Journal must be filled with the following data:

a) Account = 16106

b) Fund = relevant fund code for the project

c) Operating Unit

d) Dept

e) Impl. Agent

f) Donor

g) Project ID (this ID must be the same as the project ID in the request sent to the Treasurer)

h) Open Item Key = PPCF Custodian Staff Index ID or Supplier ID.

Year-end certification must certify the status of each PPCF, including those issued for UNDSS, by submitting the PPCF list with details (follow the exact year-end closing procedures as PCF including deposit the remaining cash in the safe into CO's bank account and full accounting/reconciliation).
