Employee Use of Sick Leave Bank. In order for a professional employee to be eligible to apply for sick leave benefits from the Sick Leave Bank, the employee must:
1) Be a member of the Bank as set forth herein; and
2) Have been absent from work due to qualifying illness, disability or accident the extent that he has used up all of his accumulated and annual sick leave time plus two (2) additional days without pay per occurrence when his salary has been reduced in full. The two-days-without-pay-per-occurrence requirement can be waived by the committee for an extenuating circumstance. 2004-2005
3) Exhaust all other leaves before accessing the sick leave bank (example: personal leave).
4) Contact the sick leave bank chairperson for an application. The application once completed needs to be returned directly to the committee chairperson. Any deviation from this process would lead to denial of the application.
5) Dates to be considered need to fall within the current pay period – not beyond. The maximum number of days that can be granted to any one Bank member in any one
(1) school term will be the remaining number of days such employee is scheduled to work under his then current contract. In no case shall the granting of Bank leave time cause the employee to receive more than his annual contracted base salary for that year. The number of days granted shall not exceed the number of days absent from work due to his own illness, disability or accident as set forth in the agreement. Bank grants shall end at the termination of the school year or at such time as the employee's contract with the District is terminated. When an employee has used a total of 120 days of Sick Leave Bank, the employee shall become eligible for additional Sick Leave Bank only as follows:
1) The employee shall be entitled to no Sick Leave Bank for the school year immediately following the school year during which the employee reached the 120-day total.
2) Beginning the second school year, and for each subsequent school year following the school year during which the employee reached the 120 day total, the employee shall be entitled to an additional thirty (30) days per school until the employee reaches a total of 120 days. The Sick Leave Council, in addition to its other duties, shall set up such rules and reporting procedures as are necessary for the orderly administration of the Sick Leave Bank and as are necessary to protect the interests of the Bank members and this School District. 2000-2001
