Childbirth. 1. Childbirth qualifies as a condition recognized under this Article because it necessitates an extended physical recovery period for the employee. 2. An employee recovering from childbirth may draw from the pool up to fifteen days for an ordinary delivery or Cesarean delivery. 3. Either of these periods set forth immediately above may be extended if the employee otherwise meets the requirements to draw additional pool days because a continued medical need exists (i.e., a Long-Term Illness), as confirmed by the employee’s physician. 4. If an employee chooses not to draw pool days for recovery from childbirth, the employee is free to make that choice.
