Disability Payments and Leave. A. If an employee is injured and files a workers’ compensation claim, their his/her claim will be assessed to be determined if it will be accepted by the Authority. While it is being assessed (i.e., prior to a determination being made as to whether it will be accepted) if the employee is unable to work, they have he/she has the right to use accrued sick leave, paid annual leave (PAL), compensatory time off and/or vacation, in that order.

Workers’ compensation supplemental pay shall begin the same day as the workers' compensation temporary disability benefits. If an employee is then receiving temporary disability benefits and supplement pay, they he/she may use any accrued leaves to receive the difference between eighty percent (80%) of this pay (received through temporary disability payments and supplemental pay) and one hundred percent (100%) of their his/her pay. Under no circumstances may an employee receive more than one hundred percent (100%) of their his/her pay after filing a workers’ compensation claim. The maximum amount of time supplemental pay will be provided is one year. After one year, if the employee remains off of work on workers’ compensation leave and still has leave accruals, they he/she will be permitted to use those accruals to make up the difference between temporary disability benefits (if still eligible) and one hundred percent (100%) of their his/her regular compensation.

He or she shall not be considered absent from duty during the time required for such examination. b. A regular employee who is unable to perform any appropriate work assignment because of disability incurred in the performance of assigned duties shall be entitled to the following disability leave benefits, in addition to those provided pursuant to the California Worker's Compensation Insurance Act. (1) During any period of disability for which payment is not provided under Worker's Compensation Insurance, the employee shall be placed on disability leave with pay to the extent of any leave with pay which he or she has accrued. Such disability leave with pay shall be charged against the employee's accrued leave with pay. (2) During any period of disability for which payment is provided under Worker's Compensation Insurance, the employee shall elect either: (a) Retain any Workers' Compensation Benefits received during the pay period and receive full pay. The employee shall use their accrued sick leave, vacation CTO and HIL on an hour- for-hour basis to cover all hours the employee is absent from duty due to the work-related disability during the applicable pay period. Or, (b) Retain any Workers' Compensation Benefits received during the pay period and receive a partial paycheck in an amount so that the partial pay and the Workers' Compensation Benefits added together are equivalent to the employee's full pay. The employee shall use their accrued sick leave, vacation, CTO, and HIL in an amount equal to one-half of the number of hours the employee was absent from work during the pay period due to the work-related disability. If, however, the amount of the Workers' Compensation Benefits is subtracted from the employee's full pay for the time off due to the disability, and the remainder is less than one-half of the amount of such full pay, then only the number of leave balance hours necessary to equal that remainder shall be charged. (3) The choice of either (2)(a) or (2)(b) above shall be an irrevocable choice for the duration of the disability leave resulting from the work- related injury. However, if the employee returns to work for a period of at least thirty (30) calendar days, the employee may again elect to choose either option b.(2)(a) or b.(2)(b) for any subsequent disability leave taken as a result of (or relating to) the same injury. c.
