Extended Leaves (RN) Sample Clauses

The Extended Leaves (RN) clause defines the terms under which registered nurses may take prolonged absences from work, such as for medical, family, or personal reasons. It typically outlines eligibility criteria, the process for requesting extended leave, and any documentation required, as well as how benefits, seniority, and job protection are handled during the leave period. This clause ensures that both the employer and the nurse have clear guidelines for managing extended absences, thereby protecting the nurse’s employment status while allowing the employer to plan for staffing needs.
Extended Leaves (RN). In addition to other approved leave programs, there shall be an extended leave program at Harborview Medical Center. The program shall provide for three to five registered nurses to be eligible for a leave of absence not to exceed six months following completion of four years of unbroken service as an RN at HMC. Participants in the program shall use vacation, holiday or compensatory leave as a portion of the requested leave. The criteria developed by the Joint Labor/Management Committee, Recruitment and Retention Coordinator and union representative on the Recruitment and Retention Committee will be used to administer the extended leave program.
