Disability/Maternity Leave Sample Clauses

Disability/Maternity Leave a. An employee who is unable to work due to a disability, including a maternity disability, may request a leave of absence for the period of time related to the disability. The Board shall not arbitrarily or unreasonably deny such requested leave. Unless the employee on leave has sick leave available and is otherwise able to use sick leave, such leave of absence shall be without pay. b. Any employee who becomes pregnant shall notify the Superintendent of her condition and, if she elects to remain in her position, may be required to submit periodic certification of her continuing fitness to perform her duties. c. The Board of Education recognizes that pregnancy related disabilities must be treated like other disabilities. Thus, during the four weeks preceding and the four weeks following childbirth, when the employee is presumed to be disabled, she will be entitled to sick leave benefits. Should disability occur earlier in the pregnancy or continue for more than one month following birth, the employee may use additional sick leave benefits if she presents a physician’s statement attesting to her continued disability. d. The Board reserves the right to request that an employee applying for leave submit a statement of health from her physician, and further reserves the right to require a maternity disability leave to start sooner than requested should the employee’s condition (mental or physical) warrant this action. Any such action shall be subject to the procedure described in paragraphs C.1.e; C.1.e(1) and C.1.e(2) of this Article. e. The Board shall not remove any employee from her duties during pregnancy, except on any one of the following bases:
