Is paid leave, which is not earned over time, reportable compensation?
To the extent authorized by RCW
41.37.260, payment you receive from your employer while on an authorized paid leave of absence is reportable compensation provided that:
(1) The payment does not exceed the salary for the position from which you are on leave; and
(2) The payment is received from the employer, not from a third party. Except as provided in WAC
415-106-265, if you receive the payment from your employer, but your employer is reimbursed for the payment by a third party, the payment is not reportable compensation.
