Extended Salary Coverage. Employees who have ten (10) to 15 years of continuous full-time employment will have their salary compensated for an additional 200 working hours. Employees who have in excess of 15 years of continuous full-time employment will have their salary compensated for an additional 120 plus the above 200 hours, totaling 320 hours. Employees will not receive holiday benefit for a regular day off during this extended salary protection period. During any of the extended salary protection periods, sick and annual leave will not accrue. At the time of bonus time accrual (employee’s hire date) if an employee has more than three (3) shifts of non-accrual workers compensation, they will not be eligible for bonus hours. This also applies to any approved non- accrual hours. It is the intent of the Department to pay the on-the-job injured employee (as outlined in this Article) the difference between full base salary and that provided by the Workers Compensation System as salary continuance. Therefore, the employee shall return to the Department all salary continuance payment by the Workers Compensation System covering the period enumerated in 13.1 of this Article. No supplemental benefit shall be paid until after the employee has deposited the Workers Compensation System lost time benefit check with the Department or the Workers’ Compensation System has issued the Department a voucher for lost time.
