101 Pa. Code § 23.101 - Punctuation, capitalization and orthography
(a)
General
rule.-Punctuation, capitalization, orthography and other matters of
style shall conform in general to the most recent edition of the United States
Government Printing Office Style Manual. Note that although the terms "part,"
"article," "chapter" and other major subdivisions are capitalized in the
Pennsylvania Code, they are not capitalized in the Statutes unless forming a
part of a heading or a cross reference to a specific heading.
(b)
Prepositional phrase
preferred.-Whenever possible without undue awkwardness, a
prepositional phrase rather than a possessive noun is used. For example, "The
rights of each employee shall be protected," not "Each employee's rights shall
be protected."
(c)
Spelling
of employee.-The word "employee" is spelled as such and not
"employe."
