Common use of Industrial Injury Clause in Contracts

Industrial Injury. A. For absence caused by a work-related injury or event, if an employee's net pay is not fully covered under Workers' Compensation regulations, the District shall provide a period of income maintenance, up to 45 calendar days, to provide the difference between that paid by Workers' Compensation or the insurer (if the District becomes self-insured or insured by a third party) to ensure the employee suffers no loss of net pay. B. The District, under the income maintenance period, shall continue payment of employee group health plan, retirement pension plan contributions and/or any other benefits as though he/she were still on the job. In the event the recovery period is for more than the income maintenance period provided by the District, the employee may use accrued sick leave and then accrued annual leave to insure he/she shall suffer no loss of net pay. C. For temporary and/or permanent light duty reassignment, the provisions of Article 7 (Sick Leave) shall control. D. Payment of the difference of Workers' Compensation and regular pay will be computed on "net pay" not "gross pay." "Net pay" will be the employee's normal gross base pay less withholding taxes at each employee's rate for the preceding three (3) months and FICA at the prevailing rate. E. When the disability payment is reduced pursuant to state statute because the employee failed to use required or provided protective gear or devices; was not following safety rules or procedures; or was injured as a result of a flagrant unsafe practice, such reduction shall also be applied under this article. F. The income maintenance period is an upper limit per each unrelated Workers' Compensation claim. G. The District may, in exceptional cases, and at its sole discretion, continue this maintenance of income at full or partial pay for additional periods of 30 days up to a maximum time limit of 12 months, including the initial income maintenance period. Denial of such an extension is not grievable, however, the District will inform the Association and provide an explanation for the denial. H. When reimbursement is necessary for an overpayment, the District and employee will devise a mutually agreeable repayment plan pursuant to the District procedure. I. Any employee who falsifies an industrial injury claim, or in any way attempts to receive benefits when the injury was not employment related, shall be subject to discipline up to and including immediate separation. Prior to any investigation, the District will inform the Association of its intent to investigate and upon its conclusion, will so inform the Association of the District’s findings.
