Exhaustion of Leave. If a worker exhausts all available leave benefits and unpaid leave options but remains unable to return to work, such worker shall be placed on a reemployment list for a period of 39 months and paid any unused vacation. When available and able to provide a medical release, during the 39-month period, the person shall be employed in a vacant position in the class of the person’s previous assignment over all other available candidates except for a reemployment list established because of lack of work or lack of funds, in which case the person shall be listed in accordance with appropriate seniority regulations. Eligible workers may retire if they so desire. The District will provide reasonable accommodation in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, if applicable.
