Intermittent Leave and Reduced-Work Schedule. 1. Intermittent leave means leave taken in separate periods of time due to a single illness or injury, rather than for one continuous period of time, and may include leave of periods from an hour or more to several weeks. Reduced-work schedule means a leave schedule that reduces the usual number of hours per work week, or hours per work day of the teacher. Examples of intermittent leave and/or reduced-work schedule leave would include leave taken on an occasional basis for medical appointments related to a serious health condition of the teacher’s or that of an immediate family member’s, or leave taken several days at a time spread over a period of six (6) months, such as for chemotherapy. 2. When medically necessary, a teacher may take intermittent FMLA leave or a reduced-work schedule to care for a spouse, child, or parent who has a serious health condition, or if the teacher has a serious health condition. The teacher shall make reasonable efforts to schedule treatment so as not to unduly disrupt the regular operations of the Board. 3. Where FMLA leave is taken because of birth or placement for adoption or xxxxxx care, a teacher may take leave intermittently or on a reduced leave schedule only if the Board agrees. 4. Where a teacher who is principally employed in an instructional capacity requests intermittent FMLA leave or FMLA leave on a reduced work schedule, and where the teacher would be on FMLA leave for more than 20% of the total number of working days over the period during which the FMLA leave would extend, such teacher must elect either: a. to take FMLA leave for a period or periods of a particular duration, not greater than the duration of the planned medical treatment; or b. to transfer temporarily to an available alternative position offered by the Board for which the teacher is qualified, as long as the alternate position has equivalent pay and benefits and the Board has determined that this alternate position better accommodates recurring periods of leave than the regular employment position of the teacher.
