In a directive issued by the USPS on 3 March 2004, a change was made in the long-standing and widely accepted practice of permitting “X”, “O”, and "Z" days to qualify a carrier for a free Saturday(s). According to the directive, effective pay period 06-04, the following rural DACA codes will not break the continuity for a “free Saturday” on a “J” or “H” route:

        Annual Leave, DACA code A
     
        Sick Leave, DACA code S
      
        Donated Leave, DACA code D
 
        Court Leave, DACA code 6 (new code)
         
        Holiday Leave, DACA code H

The use of any other DACA codes during a period of leave will break the continuity of the leave and therefore disqualify the carrier for a “free Saturday.”
