Extended Illness Bank (EIB. Employees shall accrue forty-eight (48) hours per year (prorated for part-time employees) into the Extended Illness Bank (EIB) for use in the event of extended illness. The accrual shall be at the rate of 1.85 hours per pay period or .023 hours per hour worked. The maximum accumulation to the EIB bank shall be five hundred (500) hours. Employees who reach the five hundred (500) hour cap will not accrue additional EIB hours until their accrual drops below five hundred (500) hours. Employees with existing (as of the date of contract ratification) accrued EIB hours in excess of five hundred (500) hours will retain and utilize those hours first, and will not accrue additional hours until their accrual is below five hundred (500) hours. EIB hours may be used in the event of an illness lasting longer than sixteen (16) consecutive scheduled work hours (prorated for part-time employees). The first sixteen (16) consecutive hours of scheduled work time (prorated for part-time employees) missed due to an illness shall be deducted from the employee’s PTO account. As an example of pro-ration, an employee assigned a 0.5 FTE may access EIB after the first eight (8) consecutive hours of scheduled work are missed due to an illness. (0.5 FTE x 16 work hours = 8 hours.) Employees will use sixteen (16) consecutive hours of PTO (pro-rated for FTE) for each occurrence of illness or certified health condition for the employee or the employee’s qualified family member before using EIB hours. For example: An employee has been certified as having asthma. As a result, the employee is absent for three (3) eight (8)- hour days due to asthma. PTO is used for the first two (2) eight (8)-hour days and EIB is used for the third (3rd) eight (8)-hour day. Two (2) weeks later, the employee has another asthma attack or a different illness or qualifying family illness that requires an absence of another three (3) days. Because this is a different occurrence, the employee will use another sixteen (16) consecutive PTO hours, and available EIB hours will be used beginning on the third (3rd) day. There are five (5) exceptions for which EIB hours may be used for the first day of absence due to illness:
Extended Illness Bank (EIB. Employees will accrue EIB at the rate of four (4) days per year, pro-rated for part time, based on hours paid excluding overtime hours, not to exceed eighty (80) ppp. EIB time can only be used for employee illness after the employee has been absent on unscheduled PTO or other unscheduled absence for one (1) week. For the purposes of this policy, this “one week” of absence shall be the equivalent of one half of the employee’s regular schedule of hours/standard hours for the pay period; e.g., for an employee whose standard hours per pay period is fifty-six (56), EIB may be used after twenty-eight (28) hours of unscheduled PTO or unscheduled absence have been used. During that week of absence the employee must use PTO if available. If no PTO is available, the employee will be in an unpaid status. Negative EIB balances will not be permitted. There is no maximum accrual of EIB. Healthcare Provider Certification Form must be provided for illnesses of three (3) days or more unless deemed unnecessary by Occupational Health, and the employee must clear back to work through Occupational Health.

Up to sixteen (16) hours of EIB may be utilized during the seven (7) 5 day waiting period to qualify for STD after a nurse has utilized twenty-four (24) 6 hours of PTO, unless otherwise required by law.
Extended Illness Bank (EIB. Employees shall accrue four (4) hours for each month worked, up to a maximum of forty-eight (48) hours in 12 months (prorated for part-time employees) for use in the event of extended illness. EIB hours may be used after twenty-four (24) hours of PTO usage (or leave without pay if PTO is exhausted) for illness. Employees with accrued EIB are required to use this time for his/her own illness, or to care for a dependent child of any age, a spouse/domestic partner, a parent, a parent- in-law or grandparent who has a health condition that requires supervision or treatment. If EIB is exhausted, employees are required to use any remaining PTO for covered extended leave unless allowed by law to take as unpaid leave.
