(a)Subject to department rule an appointing power may grant a leave of absence without pay, to any employee under his or her jurisdiction for a period not exceeding one year. An extension to an unpaid leave of absence may be granted by the appointing power upon the prior approval of the department. A leave so granted assures to the employee the right to return under the provisions of Section 19143.
(b)If the provisions of this section are in conflict with the provisions of a memorandum of understanding reached pursuant to Section 3517.5, the memorandum of understanding shall be controlling without further legislative action, except that if those provisions of a memorandum of understanding require the expenditure of funds, the provisions shall not become effective unless approved by the Legislature in the annual Budget Act.
