Common use of Benefit Integration Clause in Contracts

Benefit Integration. If an employee is eligible for State Disability Insurance benefits (SDI), or another Federal or State program that permits integration, upon the written request of the employee, the Employer shall reduce paid sick leave by the amount of SDI benefits so that combined SDI pay and sick leave pay equal normal straight-time salary. The reduced amount of sick leave payment shall then be charged against the employee's accrued sick leave. If an employee is eligible for Worker's Compensation benefits, the same method of integration with Employer-paid sick leave shall apply. The provisions of this paragraph are contingent upon approval of the Employer's insurance carrier.
