DEFENCE SERVICE SICK LEAVE Sample Clauses

DEFENCE SERVICE SICK LEAVE. An employee is eligible for defence service sick leave credits when the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) has certified that an employee’s medical condition is as a result of either: war like service; or non-war like service. An eligible employee can get 2 types of credits: an initial credit of 9 weeks (45 days) defence service sick leave (pro- rata for part-time employees) will apply as at the following dates, whichever is later: they start employment with the APS; or DVA certifies the condition; and an annual credit of 3 weeks (15 days) defence service sick leave (pro- rata for part-time employees). An employee can use their defence service sick leave when a recognised medical practitioner provides a certificate that says they were away due to their DVA certified medical condition. Unused annual credits can be built up to 9 weeks. An employee cannot use annual credits until the initial credit is exhausted. Defence service sick leave is paid and counts as service for all purposes. Where an employee's Defence service sick leave credits have been exhausted, personal leave provisions will apply.

You are entitled to nine weeks leave on commencement of your APS service and, after the first year, will accrue up to three weeks per year as long as your credit does not exceed nine weeks at any time. Are my accrued annual and personal/carers leave entitlements portable between government agencies? Where you are engaged as either an ongoing or non-ongoing APS employee following a period of ongoing employment with an employer staffed under the Parliamentary Service Act 1999 or from the ACT Government Service, your unused accrued annual leave and personal/carers leave (however described) will be transferred, provided there is no break in continuity of service. Where you move (including on promotion or for an agreed period) from another Agency where you were an ongoing APS employee, your unused accrued annual leave and personal/carers leave (however described) will be transferred, provided there is no break in continuity of service. Where you are engaged as an employee and immediately prior to the engagement you were employed as a non-ongoing APS employee, the Integrity Commissioner may, recognise any accrued annual leave and personal/carers leave credits (however described), provided there was no break in continuity of service. Any recognised annual leave excludes accrued leave paid out on separation. What happens to my leave credits if I leave the APS? If you separate from the APS you will be paid out annual and long service leave entitlements in accordance with the Fair Work Act 2009 and Long Service Leave (Commonwealth Employees) Act 1976.
