Common use of Disability Separation Clause in Contracts

Disability Separation. A. If any employee having an extended illness or injury exhausts all accumulated sick days, vacation days, and compensatory time, he may submit a written request to the City Manager for approval by City Council for extended sick pay benefits. The employee's prior work record with regard to usage of sick days and his seniority, along with work evaluations, will be taken into account in determining eligibility for such extension, and the duration of the extension. In the event the requested extension is denied, the employee shall be placed on disability separation, (leave of absence without pay). If extended sick pay is approved, the employee will then carry a negative sick leave balance equal to the amount of days off. When the employee returns to work the negative balance shall be reduced by the sick leave accumulation earned by the employee. However, in the event the employee does not return to active duty or is permanently separated from employment with the City prior to such negative sick leave balance being repaid in full to the City, the employee shall be financially liable to the City for any such negative sick leave balance not so repaid.
