Leave Verification. 7.10.1 The Employer has the right to verify that any leaves taken by unit members be in compliance with the applicable terms and conditions stated in this Agreement.
Leave Verification. The District shall have the sole discretion to require verification of bargaining unit members' eligibility for paid and unpaid leaves under the provisions of this Agreement.
Leave Verification. Use of leave days by Employees is solely for the purposes set out. Nothing contained in this (Leave) article shall be construed to prevent the District from seeking appropriate verification of leave use for the purpose of reasonable fiscal control and in reaction to suspected abuse, provided that no Employee shall be harassed for routine absences. In the event an Employee creates a pattern of absence that would lead a reasonable person to believe that abuse is suspected or is a likelihood, the administration may require verification of absences to take place, along with appropriate disciplinary follow-through in the event abuse is revealed.
Leave Verification. Each teacher is responsible for completing an appropriate leave form and supplying information related to the nature and type of leave requested or taken. Whenever possible, the request for leave must be submitted prior to the leave. In instances where prior approval of leave is required, the leave form must be submitted in sufficient time to permit the teacher’s supervisor to approve or disapprove the leave. When due to an emergency or other unforeseeable circumstance the teacher is unable to submit a request for leave prior to the leave, he/she shall be responsible for accurately completing the leave/verification of leave form as soon as this can be accomplished following the teacher’s return from leave. If an extended absence or special circumstances are involved, the teacher may be required by the District to complete and return a leave form during the period of absence. In such an instance, the District will cooperate fully with the teacher by making a leave form available. In any case in which a leave request or verification of leave is submitted to the District, it shall include the signature of the teacher and the representation that the teacher has truthfully and accurately represented the nature and type of leave and any facts related to the leave. This provision is not intended to displace other negotiated provisions that designate leave to which teachers are entitled, establish timelines for requesting leave, or specify whether leave requires approval as a condition of leave.
Leave Verification. If, for any reason, the Director suspects a misuse of leave, the Director may require written verification of the reason for any absence from scheduled duties or assigned work location. (For example, if illness is claimed, a physician’s written verification may be required.)
Leave Verification. In addition, employees shall be required to submit a doctor or nurse practitioner’s medical certification, verifying the actual injury or illness of the employee’s family member if an employee requests family care leave subsequent to having been absent from a normally scheduled on-duty shift for a period of 48 consecutive hours. Such medical verification shall not be unreasonably imposed.
Leave Verification. After an absence of three (3) consecutive days, the District will 44 contact the employee to determine if the absence qualifies for coverage under State 45 and Federal leave laws. The District may also request a verification of sick leave at 46 any time if the District has reason to suspect possible abuse of sick leave. In addition, 47 sick leave in excess of five (5) consecutive days must be verified by a physician or 48 other suitable proof, if requested by the District.
Leave Verification. Any employee claiming sick leave benefits of more than five (5) consecutive school days from accumulated sick leave, shall upon request, submit a physician’s statement the fifth school day after the first day of illness and every twenty

Leave Verification. When a Bargaining Unit Member is on sick leave due to illness or injury for a period of three (3) or more consecutive work days (for purposes of this article a work day constitutes as 50 percent or more of assigned work hours), the District requires the Bargaining Unit Member to present a medical doctor's written verification of the personal illness or injury, and/or, a medical authorization to return to work prior to returning to work.
9.2.3.1 The District may send an employee to a District appointed physician for examination, at the District’s expense, if the District has reason to question an employee’s absence from duty, regardless of the duration of such illness, and shall require the employee to present a written statement from that physician verifying the absence.
9.2.3.2 The District may ask for a doctor’s note after one day of illness only if the bargaining unit member’s evaluation indicates an improvement plan has been established because of poor attendance.
