Common use of Extended Sick Leave Clause in Contracts

Extended Sick Leave. If an employee’s absence due to either industrial or non-industrial illness or injury extends beyond accumulated leave for this purpose, the employee will be paid at fifty percent (50%) of his/her regular rate for a period not to exceed one hundred (100) working days. The one hundred (100) working day period shall run concurrently with other paid leaves. An employee may use vacation accumulation to provide an amount equal to a full day’s pay during any time when the employee is on 50% pay status. In no event shall this benefit extend beyond one hundred (100) working days in a fiscal year. A regular classified employee shall be required to present a doctor’s report stating the start date of the excused absence and/or any work restrictions and the date the employee is anticipated to be able to return to work and/or be released from restrictions to qualify for these benefits. Upon expiration of paid leaves, the employee may also apply for coverage to the disability insurance carrier, according to its procedures.
