Enforceable Legal Claim. If an employee has received sick leave with pay and has a legally enforceable claim to compensation or damages for earnings lost during the said period from any third party other than the employee’s own insurer under a contract of insurance, the employee shall, at the request and expense of the Employer, take all steps reasonably necessary to enforce the said claim. If the employee receives any payment of accounts of earnings as a result of such claim, the employee shall pay to the Employer, so much of the said payment as related to the sick leave pay received by the employee for the said period and upon so doing, shall receive sick leave credit for the number of days represented by such payment.
