Common use of Disability Program Eligibility Clause in Contracts

Disability Program Eligibility. The City will provide, at no cost to employees, a disability program covering full-time employees for non-work related illnesses and injuries. Disability forms must be returned to the City, through the designated department/division human resources representative, no later than forty-five (45) days from the commencement of disability; failure to comply will result in a denial of disability benefits. The disability benefit shall be eighty-one percent (81%) of the employee's regular straight-time biweekly gross pay (in no event more than eighty (80) hours of pay at straight-time rates), less applicable withholding. The employee may, if he/she so desires, elect to use all, or part, of his/her accumulated but unused sick leave in order to make up any difference between one hundred percent (100%) of his/her gross wages and the amount which he/she receives under the disability program, provided that all new (current year) sick leave accruals are exhausted before an employee may use the available balance in his/her Old Sick Leave Bank. If an employee exhausts all sick leave benefits, other approved leave may be granted by the Appointing Authority. During the period in which an employee receives such payments, he/she shall suffer no reduction in his/her paid sick leave entitlement set forth in Article 13 of this Agreement, as applicable. If, while receiving such payments, the employee performs work for the City or another employer, the amount of payment under the disability program shall be reduced by the compensation which he/she receives during that time period.
