Under certain conditions, family and medical leave may be taken intermittently or on a reduced work schedule. The nurse shall use all available accrued time if the family and medical leave of absence is for the nurse’s own serious illness; provided, however, the nurse may elect to retain up to forty (40) hours of vacation. The nurse shall use all available accrued vacation in excess of forty (40) hours when family and medical leave is used for the other reasons. The Employer shall maintain the nurse’s benefits during this leave and shall reinstate the nurse to the nurse’s former or equivalent position at the conclusion of the leave providing the nurse’s position was not otherwise eliminated in a layoff.

Family and Medical Leave of Absence. The District agrees to comply with all provisions and conditions of the Federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993. When time off work which qualifies as FMLA leave is to be taken, i.e. personal or family illness, etc., employees are required to exhaust earned and/or accrued paid personal, sick, and/or vacation time off which will be credited against their FMLA leave. If an employee has a work- related illness or injury that qualifies as a “serious health condition” under this law, time away from the job for which the employee receives Workers Compensation payments is also considered an FMLA leave and will run concurrently up to twelve (12) weeks of FMLA leave in any twelve (12) month period, if it is for an FMLA qualifying purpose. During the period of an approved FMLA leave, health insurance benefits being provided to the employee will continue uninterrupted. Employees must continue health insurance contributions during the term of leave. Failure of an employee to pay their share of health insurance premium during FMLA leave may result in loss of coverage if the employee’s contribution is more than thirty (30) days late. If the employee’s premiums are in arrears, the District shall provide the employee at least fifteen (15) days written notice prior to canceling insurance plan coverage. Except as required under COBRA, the District’s obligations to maintain health benefit premium contributions for an employee on FMLA ceases when: 1) the employment relationship would have terminated, irrespective of the FMLA leave (e.g., reduction in force); or 2) when the employee advises the District of intent not to return from leave; or 3) when FMLA expires and the employee has not returned from leave; or 4) all accumulated paid time off has been exhausted. The employee will then be offered COBRA as required at the end of FMLA period.
