Suspension Without Pay If Employee is suspended and/or temporarily prohibited from participating in the conduct of the Employer’s affairs by a notice served under Section 8(e)(3) or (g)(1) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Employer’s obligations under this Agreement will be suspended as of the date of service thereof, unless stayed by appropriate proceedings. If the charges in such notice are dismissed, the Employer may in its discretion:
(a) pay Employee all or part of the compensation withheld while its contract obligations were suspended; and/or
(b) reinstate (in whole or in part) any of its obligations which were suspended.

Leaves Without Pay A. Military leave shall be granted in accordance with statutory requirements and University policy.
B. Appearance as an individual rather than as an officer or an employee of the University, whether voluntary or in response to a legal order, to appear and testify in private litigation. If an employee has vacation or compensatory time off available to use, the employee may choose to use that leave for this purpose.
C. In accordance with the Family Medical Leave Act, an employee shall be granted up to twelve (12) weeks unpaid leave to care for a family member. During this period of time, the Employer shall continue to make the Employer's contribution to the employee's health insurance as though the employee were on payroll. An employee may also be eligible to use sick leave under the provisions of Article 17.
D. An employee shall be granted up to sixteen (16) hours unpaid time per year for business connected to children's schooling (i.e., conferences). If an employee has vacation or compensatory time off available to use, the employee may choose to use that leave for this purpose.
E. Other personal leaves may be granted at any time to any employee for any period of time for personal purposes with department head approval. This leave may include personal unpaid educational leave to attend a University educational program leading toward a University degree. Should more than one (1) employee in a work location request personal leave at the same time and staffing not allow approval of more than one (1) employee on leave, the employee with the most University Seniority shall get the leave. However, personal or educational leave may be denied if other previously approved leaves do not allow staffing flexibility to grant additional leaves.

10.10.2 The applications for and granting of such leaves of absence shall be in writing. In addition, a bargaining unit member on such leave shall notify the District Human Resources Office by March 15 of the school year as to an intent to return to employment in the District. Failure to so notify will be considered an abandonment of position.
Special Leave Without Pay Section 1. Employees may participate in a Special Leave Without Pay Program as established by the Hennepin County Board of Commissioners. The Special Leave Without Pay Program period is from date of County Board Approval through December 31, 2021.
Section 2. Upon the request of either party, the EMPLOYER and the UNION shall meet and confer on the extension of this Special Leave Without Pay Program each year through 2021.
Section 3. The EMPLOYER's policy on use of Special Leave Without Pay (SLWOP) provides that employees may use SLWOP in cases where they would otherwise not take the leave. The EMPLOYER will therefore interpret its policy on SLWOP to allow SLWOP for Union Leave and Parenting Leave in cases where the employee would not otherwise take the leave.
