Policy Title: Sick Leave (Non Bargaining Personnel) Code No.: 472
Sick leave will be allowed for the personal illness or medically related disability of the employee. Employees will be granted sick leave days pursuant to the following schedule:
1st year of employment - 13 days
2nd year of employment - 14 days
3rd year of employment - 15 days 4th year of employment - 16 days
5th year of employment and subsequent years - 17 days
Access for paid sick leave begins after 20 full business days of employment. Request for amendment to this access may be made to the superintendent or designee.
The unused days of sick leave in any one-year shall be credited for use in subsequent years, with the maximum accumulation of 120 days. The board may require such reasonable evidence, as it may desire, confirming the necessity of such leave.
Sick leave may be taken in hourly increments.
Upon termination from employment any unused accumulated sick leave shall be forfeited without recompense.
Any recovery for worker's compensation or other insurance paid for in full or in part by the board shall be offset against said sick leave pay.
Upon request, employees shall be shown a copy of a written accounting of the employee's accumulated sick leave days at the end of each fiscal year. If written objection is not filed within fifteen (15) days, the accounting is assumed to be correct.
For the purpose of this policy the term “day” shall equate to the number of hours the employee is contracted for or assigned to work. All sick leaves will be recorded in hours to align properly with the time clock system.
An employee may use up to eight (8) days of accumulated sick leave for illness of a spouse, child(ren), parent, or parent-in-law. These eight (8) days shall be deducted from the employee's sick leave accumulation.
